I don't take in enough books to worry about it, but makes me wonder if there are some who will worry.Trish @ Love, Laughter, Insanityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17225576485797030511noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-22666436303394436902009-10-08T05:06:07.420-07:002009-10-08T05:06:07.420-07:00I disclose where books from in tags.

Everything I have read that is a review copy is marked as such. I do think the law needs to be refined and clarified though, as is there is a lot of leeway to go after anyone for anything.Nicole (Linus's Blanket)https://www.blogger.com/profile/12473607646939202824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-42517091997887520932009-10-08T04:31:09.593-07:002009-10-08T04:31:09.593-07:00I'm like you, I figure I'll just keep doin...I'm like you, I figure I'll just keep doing what I'm doing - saying where the book came from and I'll be okay.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-69126762599280872572009-10-08T03:47:11.080-07:002009-10-08T03:47:11.080-07:00I'm really not concerned about the FTC scenari...I'm really not concerned about the FTC scenario (outside of the issue of how they everyone in a broad group "just in case" they need to prosecute a heinous offender) and how it affects me. I started disclosing a few months ago and will continue to do so. Though I will likely make that disclosure a bit more apparent in my reviews. Either way I'm going to be covered.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07965647842119649711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11303971.post-65978900357092073242009-10-08T02:29:15.954-07:002009-10-08T02:29:15.954-07:00I clicked through to the legal post about the FTC,...I clicked through to the legal post about the FTC, and while it was long, I got the gist. I'd say 90% of us already do all of that, so it shouldn't be a big deal. Still I just shake my head. It will be interesting to know if and how they intend to police this. I don't know if you caught Dawns (See is Too Fond of Books) post recently, where she makes a recipe from a cookbook she will be reviewing. She makes sure she is in compliance with the disclosure requirements. Hilarious!Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.com
