18元买来三无MP3突然爆炸 初中生被炸得面目全非

记者从湘东区市场监督管理局了解到,通过初步调查,发生爆炸的MP3外包装没有生产厂商的厂名厂址及品牌信息,他们现在还在进一步调查。

Generic might not be 100% accurate:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Generic_brand
Generic brands of consumer products (often supermarket goods) are distinguished by the absence of a brand name. It is often inaccurate to describe these products as "lacking a brand name", as they usually are branded, although with either the brand of the store where they are sold or a lesser-known brand name which may not be aggressively advertised to the public.[citation needed] They are identified more by product characteristics.

But, "the absence of a brand name" is very close here.

here's a few more examples of usage:

hdc: 无声之乐、无体之礼、无服之丧

gr: Les trois « sans » : musique sans aucun son, urbanité (rites) sans aucune forme ou démonstration apparente, et deuil sans vêtements spéciaux (car n’existant que ds le cœur des individus).

James Legge's English translation from 孔子闲居:
http://ctext.org/liji/kongzi-xian-ju/ens
Confucius said, 'The music that has no sound; ceremonial usages that have no embodiment; the mourning that has no garb - these are what we denominate "the three points that have no positive existence."

hdc has a second meaning with Buddhist terms, but I think we can leave that out.
Diff:
# 三無 三无 [san1 wu2] /(Internet slang) generic brand product (brandless, makeless, manufacturerless products)/(old) (Confucianism) music with no sound, rites with no mainifestation, mourning with no garb/
#
+ 三無 三无 [san1 wu2] /lacking three key attributes (or at least one of them)/
+ 三無產品 三无产品 [san1 wu2 chan3 pin3] /product lacking one or more of three requirements such as production license, inspection certificate, and manufacturer's name and location/
+ 三無人員 三无人员 [san1 wu2 ren2 yuan2] /person without identification papers, a normal residence permit or a source of income/
+ 三無企業 三无企业 [san1 wu2 qi3 ye4] /enterprise with no premises, capital or regular staff/
