Yep, the labeling would enable exactly the kind of class-action false advertising/fraud lawsuits against companies that simply lie on the packaging.

So companies would be forced to disclose their actual level of support, and risk consumers not wanting the product, lie on their disclosure and risk a significant class-action lawsuit, or improve their level of support.

I would hope the market would tip us towards the latter scenario, but...we won't know unless we actually force disclosure of these things.

I figure like everything else, this will just advantage the fly-by-night imports who you can't sue in the first place. They will continue to have no incentive to comply with any laws whatsoever.
