What the actual frack?? So, let me see if I get this right. There's a chance that items purchased on #AliExpress infringe on #IP and I, as a customer, am required to "negotiate a solution" with the seller? I'm not even sure if I'm supposed to understand that as a product recall or just as a kind reminder that I'm a conniving, thieving bastard??

Not that they're making that process easy, mind you. Returns and refunds period for the purchase in question has long since expired and there's no other notification of the potential violation not in my order history nor on the seller's own page. And if I wanted to send the seller an inquiry of "unknown message type" which it insists on is the only option, I'd have to use the AliExpress app!?
