An agency like the FTC could also evaluate various products and demand a recall from the market. If they set the tone right, I think that will change manufacturers' minds pretty quickly.
But we need an FTC that is actually hell-bent on stopping bad behavior, and not the one that exists now that gives slaps on the wrists to Internet providers for collecting and selling everyone's personal data.
- LoSboccacc 10y agoFTC is more a tax from manufacturers than anything else really. Like, I've seen many monitors from various brand all stamped FTC emitting enough interference to generate audible noise on FTC stamped speakers. Isn't that the only thing they have a strong mandate and certification process for?
- azdle 10y agoI think you're thinking of the FCC, not the FTC. Also, the FCC doesn't care about if your speakers make noise when they get hit with RF, they only really care that the speakers aren't emitting RF to interfere with the things that are supposed to be.
