I wish the US had such a system.


The US does have a simuliar system, a complaint has to be filed with a government agency (usually the FTC or FCC) about deceptive advertising.  It's just alot slower an usually companies will take on other companies in civil courts first as they can get relief a hell of alot quicker.  Once the court action begins between SCO v. IBM and then IBM v. SCO, the real fun starts as massive amounts of monies are spent on lawyers.  Guess who has vastly deeper pockets of the two. Once one sides runs out of money to feed it's lawyers, they tend to lose an if they are still in business, the penality phase should put SCO out of our misery.   :-D
