FTC Sets Endorsement Rules for Blogs
By Cecilia Kang Washington Post Staff Writer Tuesday, October 6, 2009
Bloggers who offer endorsements must disclose any payments they have received from the subjects of their reviews or face penalties of up to $11,000 per violation, the Federal Trade Commission said Monday.
The agency, charged with protecting consumer interests, had not updated its policy on endorsements in nearly three decades, well before the Internet became a force in shaping consumer tastes. The new rules attempt to make more transparent corporate payments to bloggers, research firms and celebrities that help promote a product.
"Given that social media has become such a significant player in the advertising area, we thought it was necessary to address social media as well," said Richard Cleland, assistant director for the division of advertising practices at the FTC.
Consumer interest groups have long complained about the lack of disclosure. They say consumers often have no way of telling what corporate payments have been made to bloggers writing on parenting, fitness, dieting and financial services sites, for example.
.... Punishments for violations will range from a warning letter to a fine of up to $11,000 per violation.

I thought the package usb-modeswitch solves the issue. Its a few kb. -- with Regards: Why you should not mind your own business, Find out at: http://gramware.blogspot.com
I have used the Fedora9.rpm on fedora 11 and currently on fedora 12. The .deb installed on ubuntu 9.xx - though the gui app fails to fully launch - i used the wvdial.conf instead. have a look at http://www.tuxhat.com/linux/reliance-netconnect-broadband-on-linux/ I think I edited menu.1st on ubuntu due to unnavailability of modeprobe Regards Ukang'a Dickson
