Branstorming

I know I'll be walking on thin ice since this is not my country, but since this regulation applies to us all online I thought I'll bring some ideas to the party:

Dumb laws are passed all over the world, I think no country is an exception to this, so, in Mexico, we have an additional law called "Ley de Amparo" (literally translated as "Shelter Law"). The objective of this law is to protect people from dumb laws, and if anyone thinks that the new law they're applying on him is unfair, then the affected person starts a "Shelter Trial", if the judge rules on his favor then the dumb law doesn't apply to this person (it still applies to everyone else who didn't start a shelter trial).

Isn't anything similar over there?

I'm aware that most people don't have the resources to go to court in case there is something similar, I'm just brainstorming :$

Re: Branstorming

I haven't heard of a law like that in the States, but perhaps class action lawsuits come close. I like the "Shelter Law" you described. Perhaps we can bring a similar idea to our lawmakers. Thanks for the brainstorm!

Shelter Law. I like that.

More ideas... what about a Product Liability Release form that the buyer has to sign?... I mean, if Hospitals can make you sign release forms in case they kill you, why can't it be done in this case? And our products are way less threatening than hospital procedures!

Re: Branstorming

What if we just market our stuff as if it's not for children? We could say that those cloth diapers are for the dog, and the felt play food is for the cat!? Those binky blankets are to comfort adults when they lose their jobs making products for children....

Seriously though, kismet has some great ideas...
