Does this consumer law apply to websites as well?

Question by nope: Does this consumer law apply to websites as well?

Companies, by law, are required to educate and warn the customer of all the risks and dangers associated with using their product. Anything from a choking hazard to serious injury or death, must be covered in the warning and safety pamphlets.

Would this law apply for a website’s product, such as e-merchandise? Like malfunctioning e-merch; such as techincal problems, especially if they knew they could happen? If not, can someone give me a link to a website with Californian laws for online business and warning/educating consumers?

Yes, you are required to post warnings about your product that you are selling on your website, both current warnings and past warnings about the product and where to find more information about the product in question.

If its a recalled item, you also must post a warning about the recall on your website.

That would be fraud if you dont do so.

There are many professional societies specifically for engineers and anyone working in specific areas or industries. IEEE, International Electrical and Electronic Engineering, is the largest engineering society in the world and covers a very diverse range of technologies, from power generation and transmission to semicondutors to automotive electronics and everything in between. ASM Intl (fka American Society for Metals) is for professionals in metals and materials industries, primarily metals but also polymers and covers extractive metallurgy thru to failure analysis, tons of technical information on alloy chemistry, mechanical/physical properties/corrosion, applications from aerospace to medical devices. and many others… SME, Society for Manufacturing Engineers. ASQ, American Society for Quality. AWS, American Welding Society.
