Lawsuits over dupes are popping up in courts. But can dupes be illegal? Shoppers are happy to buy products that look just like high-end items, but are priced for way less.

The original Birkin sells for Rs 86.23 crore. It was born in a plane on a vomit bag

An over 40-year-old handbag has sold for a whopping €8.6 million ($10 million or Rs 86.23 crore) at a Sotheby’s auction. But this isn’t any ordinary bag; it’s the original Birkin made by luxury brand Hermes for French style icon Jane Birkin. Shockingly, this style symbol had the most unfashionable start — it was designed on a vomit bag on an airplane in the early 1980s

'Neoliberalism' might feel like a squishy term that's hard to define and understand. But this ideology, founded by a group of men in the Swiss Alps, is a political project that has dominated our economic system for decades. In the name of free market fundamentals, the forces behind neoliberalism act like an invisible hand, shaping almost every aspect of our lives. This episode originally ran as "Capitalism: What Makes Us Free?"
