12:34 PM EDT, 08/25/2025 (MT Newswires) -- Shopify ( SHOP ) brought back rules against "hateful content" roughly a year after removing a similar ban, Bloomberg reported Monday, citing an update made by the company to its e-commerce platform.

The company's website was updated to describe that "products promoting hateful content, violence, gore, profanity or offensive content," will be prohibited from its app, Bloomberg said, based on archived versions of the website.

Last July, Shopify ( SHOP ) had removed a ban on hateful content from its policy, Bloomberg said, adding that the new rules have come in for merchants who use Shopify's ( SHOP ) sales channel.

Shopify ( SHOP ) did not immediately respond to MT Newswires' request for comment.
