China's Temu takes over the NFL Super Bowl!
Despite the platform's popularity worldwide for offering users cheap stuff, Temu doesn't have the best reputation in the US because its products are not the "best quality" and is known for having "unethical" business practices, according to Eightify.
According to USA Today, the app could potentially have "spyware" deeming it sketchy because Temu allegedly has ties with communist China, and by giving it information such as addresses, birthdays, credit card information, and more.
In addition, to the above, because Temu offers things at meager prices, this could also result in labor exploitation and "unethical" working conditions.

"HOW IS TEMU AFFORDING THIS MANY ADS."
