Core Viewpoint - The incident involving Romoss power banks highlights the fragility of e-commerce platforms' consumer protection mechanisms, as thousands of users face refund issues due to the seller's insufficient account balance after a recall of 490,000 defective products [1][3]. Group 1: Incident Overview - Romoss Technology announced a recall of 490,000 power banks due to defects in battery cell materials that could cause overheating or even fires [3]. - Consumers are experiencing a tug-of-war with the platform and the seller, as many report being unable to receive refunds due to the seller's insufficient account balance [3][4]. - The platform's response has raised public concerns about the efficacy of e-commerce consumer protection systems [3].

作者：龚进辉 昨天，网上疯传小红书要被阿里收购。对此，小红书方面予以否认，"以上信息为谣言，并且将追责到 底。"其实，这并非首次传出小红书要被阿里收入囊中，早在2019年就有类似传闻，且阿里系HRG已经 进驻该公司，似乎传得有板有眼。对此，当时小红书高管公开表示，"是造谣，已发函至谣言的源头， 将追责到底。" 阿里收购小红书是假，但投资小红书、与小红书合作却是真。它曾领投小红书D轮融资，并参与E轮融 资。合作方面，今年618前夕，小红书和淘天宣布推出"红猫计划"，第一次将种草笔记和商品购买链接 打通。这意味着，以后用户在小红书刷到一篇种草笔记，可以直接点链接跳转到淘宝下单，不用再手动 搜索商品。 此举看似是两大平台的强强联合，实现内容种草与电商交易的无缝衔接，但或多或少夹杂着无奈的成 分。小红书面临商业化困境，高度依赖广告创收，电商业务贡献的收入占比并不高。其曾尝试自建电商 闭环，比如"号店一体"政策，但因供应链等问题未能完全成功，最终转向开放合作模式，全力押注买手 模式、生活方式电商，具体成效如何，目前尚未有非常明晰的数据表征。 既然小红书被电商巨头阿里收购没戏，那独立发展成为它唯一选项，上市则是更进一步的 ...
