The funniest part about this ban is that it puts intense scrutiny on US supply chains, which are heavily reliant on prison labour.

“It is appalling that in the 21st century slavery and forced labour still exist in the world,” said Pierre-Yves Dermagne, the deputy prime minister of Belgium, which holds the rotating EU presidency, prioritised the ban.

“This hideous crime must be eradicated and the first step to achieve this consists in breaking the business model of companies that exploit workers.”

Companies that exploit workers? How far are they going to go with that; is tying healthcare to employment and constantly raising output requirements considered exploitation?

Just a casual reminder that some of those countries jail you for opposing genocide.
