Yep, good points. I originally laid out the fears/anger in the US over the FTC announcement. As we all know, people in US dont always base their arguments on facts. There is simply a knee-jerk reaction against the government getting involved in anything. Hell, poor rural americans would rather get eaten alive by cancer caused by processed food and pesticides than have the government offer healthcare. As Roxanne says, this rule is aimed at Commercial interactions online. If it stays like this, it'l be fine...just like the blogosphere is fine with laws against spam and child porn. It's good to show some muscle when the govt does anything. Makes them think twice.
