This is federal offense, like document falsification.
So if somebody will be caught on doing it - could go to jail.
- knowitnone 2y agoexcept they are not in your country so how can to go to jail and why do they care about you laws?
- simne 2y agoHave you hear about customs?
- ssl-3 2y agoNone of the electronic widgets I've bought stateside from overseas sources have ever shown any evidence that they've ever been actually-inspected by US Customs. How would they know that an item is fraudulently marked if they never look?
- simne 2y agoFor all things you buy in local shop, responsible owners of shop. If you buy anything abroad, this is your own problem and it is not relevant to subject.

- simne 2y agoYou just don't know, how work defense of internal market in typical country. 1. Organizations listed in subject (NIST, FCC, deputies from tech companies) constantly create or even invent methods to check products quality and to enforce penalties for offenders, and propose regulations to approve by parliament. 2. Parliament make juridical documents and approve budgets for 1 (and 3,4 when need). 3. Customs limit penetration of abroad subjects to internal market. 4. Police, courts, deal with internal offenders, or with abroad offenders managed to infiltrate through customs to internal market. In real life, local shop become responsible when sell products from abroad, and regulations limited possibilities to create local shops for foreigners. Unfortunately, life is constantly changed, technologies constantly grow, so old regulations eventually become obsolete, so all these things work in endless loop.
