First Ming, now this.

What is going on in China? They ship our kids lead-based toys and candy laced with date-rape drugs, and now pre-installed viruses. It seems to be that no product from China can be trusted until they start cleaning house. Or perhaps the Chinese government just lets this go on with a wink-and-a-nod.
Boycott China. Just kidding about the Ming thing.
Sort of...

Damn, did some more research on this. In the past two years, China has sent us poison seafood, poison dogfood, poison catfood, and poison toothpaste along with the other stuff already mentioned.
What else, I wonder.
Yeah pretty much can trust anything from them, sadly SO much shit gets made from there and theres hardly any quality control...and company's like walmart take the cheapest prices items they can get and shove them right on the store floor...and if u have a problem with ure item? they tell you to call china....(someone got chemical burns from sandals from there and thats what they told them...ill look for the link)
Shame about your old videos not being online anymore. Would love to see number 4 again. Let us know if you ever decide to re-upload them as some sort of "classic oozo" package.
It's not just about quality control, it's about a culture that really places little value on how it impacts its own society and especially anyone outside its society. Personal rights and dignity are not really a big deal. Face is more important. The sad thing is, changes will likely be made and quality improved simply due to the embarrassment this has caused them, not because they really give a shit about doing the right thing or making products that don't harm people. There are some things Westerners can learn from Eastern cultures. Right and wrong is not one of them.
