    ✔ From today, as a European consumer, you have more rights if something goes seriously wrong because of a product you bought.     The EU’s new Product Liability Directive enters into force to protect you:     🛡️ In case of harm from defective products, such as personal injury, damage to property or data loss – you have more and clearer rights.      🚀 Digital products like software and AI are now also covered.     🌍 Companies must always designate a liable person in the EU, so you can always reach the responsible business.     ⚖️ Businesses also benefit, because liability rules are clarified and there is less uncertainty.    Win-win for European consumers and for business.    Discover more: https://europa.eu/!NFwbfG    #EuropeanUnion
