| Amazon and Google pull racist products |
After BBC Click's investigation found many examples, Amazon, Google and Wish removed premium white racist products sold through their platforms.

Amazon said: The product in question is no longer available and we have taken action against the bad providers that supplied the products and violated our policies.
Although Google has stated that we do not allow objectionable hate content, ads, or products to be displayed, we will actively implement these guidelines and take action if we detect a violation of the rules.
Although Wish Wish: We are working hard to remove these items and take other steps to prevent these items from appearing again.

It may be difficult to get rid of these essential products completely, but it shows that there is still room for improvement.
