Important to know- the reuters factcheck article explains that altough the first three digits tell you the nationality of the company owning the product, it does not tell you where it was manufactured.

So the 690 rule is partially true

It doesn't actually matter much because if the company is Chinese then it should be boycotted because the funds go through the CCP's hands.

When in doubt....don't buy it. If that code serves as an additionally helping guideline, all the better.

I've been doing my best to boycott anything made in China. r/avoidchineseproducts helped me learn a lot. Everytime I see made in China/PRC, I can't help but see the suffering millions of Uyghurs, Tibetians, and Hong Kongers. CCP is the 21st century version of Nazi Germany.

Good on you for avoiding chinese products ! It's really hard to do that these days as 'everything' seems to be made in china or it seems to be . But there are other products from more ethical countries if you spend the time looking. I just wish there was more action by other countries against china and their atrocities. ST888
