The recent decision by California’s Court of Appeals regarding Amazon’s product liability in defective products sold by third parties on its platform may have profound repercussions not just for Amazon but for operators of all e-commerce sites.

Amazon and others may now be held liable for injuries sustained due to defective products sold on their platforms in the state of California.
