And the label doesn’t say anything about it, doesn’t have the “don’t throw in the trash” logo.
Those LEDs are glued in, there’s no way to remove batteries before discarding the item

Until stupid people stop buying this crap, this is always going to happen.
It wasn’t advertised. OP says the label didn’t indicate this was there.
Yes, but companies need to be start being responsible too. I want to see a tax added to every single electronic product that covers recycling.
Absolutely. Perhaps not in this case, but often there aren’t even viable alternatives. You can’t stop buying everything.
And good luck only buying stuff not made with child labor and slavery.
They’ll never be responsible on their own. They’d willingly give you cancer if they knew it was profitable.
We’ll see how disposable they are when the price triples because the government needs to tax enough to send people out to pick them up.
Why can we only ever hold the consumers liable? Why do people like you never condemn the creators and those who sell these products?
Currently the only way to do that is to not buy dumb shit. What is condemning the manufacturers supposed to do? Make them shift uncomfortably on top of the pile of money?
Because sometimes the consumer is the boss.
Because people buy them, they won’t stop making them whilst they sell. Stop buying them and they’ll stop making them. It’s not like the are necessary.
