H&M tossed out of Chinese marketplace. Interesting read. One thing to take into account is that 'forced labor' is the nice current way of saying slavery.

In January, the United States banned all products made with cotton from Xinjiang, with U.S. Customs and Border Protection saying it had found a series of forced labour indicators, including debt bondage, restriction of movement, isolation, intimidation and threats, withholding of wages, and abusive living and working conditions.

The Canadian government has also banned the import of all products produced by forced labour.

In recent years, Chinese authorities have incarcerated large numbers of Uyghurs and other predominantly Muslim groups in Xinjiang for forcible political indoctrination and skills training. The government says those people have graduated, but former detainees and relatives have said people who leave indoctrination camps are regularly forced to sign work contracts.

Chinese authorities, however, accuse critics of lying about the existence of forced labour.
