France removes 1,700+ ads, bans 200 accounts selling looted goods

French authorities and peer-to-peer platforms removed over 1,700 ads and banned 237 accounts suspected of reselling goods looted during recent demonstrations. Commerce Minister Serge Papin announced the action, which follows government summons to Vinted, eBay, Leboncoin, Meta, and TikTok. The move signals heightened enforcement against illicit resale, but the scale of the looting and its broader economic impact remain unclear.
