There is a third answer, the standards as written address the problem
sufficiently. The other two could also be valid.

All:
There are two answers here. The first is that the level of complaints
is low because many people (the average non-technican citizen) does
not know to whom to complain, or feel that they will not get any
response (and may not). The second issue is that most regulatory
bodies do not do any significant amount of investigation regarding
complaints unless there is some threshold quantity of complaints
regarding a certain subject.
In general, in working with the FCC, I have found the enforcement
activities to be complaint driven.

Has anyone heard what the level of complaints that government agencies have
been
getting from devices such as ITE?
I seem to remember Don Bush telling me he had discussed this with a
regulatory
body and found the answer was zero or near zero. Which Don pointed out meant
the
current levels and testing methods were sufficient or maybe too tight.
