EU product liability expands beyond physical damage

Original: Beyond physical damage: The new scope of product liability in the EU

The European Union's updated product liability framework is widening its scope so claims no longer hinge solely on physical damage. Under the new rules, compensation can cover data loss, psychological harm and damage from software and AI-enabled products. Commentators say the shift significantly raises exposure for manufacturers and tech firms selling into the EU market.

Why now: New EU rules broaden what consumers can claim for, prompting businesses and lawyers to assess the wider risks.
