How else are they supposed to ship your home any package without that info? I'm not in favor of Temu, as there were some allegations of forced labour etc (I didn't try to verify), but removing account from e-commerce app because they require delivery address is probably dumbest reason ever. BTW I usually order packages from other sites to something similar to USPS self-service package lockers, so I don't have to provide home delivery address, but still I wasn't able to evade ordering directly to home 100% of the time due to various things.
Great point! I shop there from time to time via Temu's website, I don't use the app. What makes Temu, and or, its user data collection any worse than that of the many other rapacious companies out that do it with impunity? Like M$, Google, Amazon, just to name a few. Only difference I see with this new squawking is Temu is a Chinese firm thus under a cloud of suspicion by default.
Here’s another (more important?) reason to not do business with them: https://www.reuters.com/business/re...cks-down-unsafe-ecommerce-imports-2025-02-05/
I don't use Temu, but I have used AliExpress without problems. Amazon is definitely the best shopping experience, but I don't know that they're any better regarding data collection.
