These claims lack substance. There is nothing forcing the manufacturer to alter their design. They simply need a new line stating "FTC-rated power," and they can include whatever derived test results they choose below that. It’s beyond me how this harms consumer interests.The ruling can be challenged in court on the basis that it is not practical, can harm consumer interest by increasing cost of goods, and potentially goes beyond authority of FTC. Fortunately we don't have to go there as the chances of any enforcement action is as close to zero as possible.
What we are discussing is people putting pressure on me to adopt it and become FTC enforcer. I have explained that I will not do that. And given reasoning for it.
You are, of course, in charge of how you manage your site, and I appreciate that. However, with great power...
