And you think we've got a nanny state
Sorting out some wine glasses for a mate in the US for christmas and this is posted at the bottom of the page:
Attention California residents. Proposition 65 WARNING:

If it's a warning so that consumers can make informed judgements about the prouducts then surely that's a good thing.
Whereas the EU/UK would just make it illegal.

Some people are incapable of making informed judgements. The majority of the general public that is.
