Well, I hope other jurisdictions/ foreign regulators (like Italy's AGCM that threw the book at Vemma) will get with the program and impose similar measures. And you're right-- these harshly-worded rules are only as good as their enforcement...and the US *is* small...

What I want to know is... if you are a US person and your entire first line is in, say... Mexico, and the rest of your business is elsewhere (international) ...are you, as an American, not able to collect any money unless your foreign downline submits receipts for profitable sales? Even though such measures are not required until their countries laws? Much like with China, I simply do not see how they can have multiple sets of rules and contingencies in different jurisdictions but only ONE universal currency (volume points) and *still* call it a "level playing field."

I guess they'll just "fake it" til they "make it."
