Comments:

Dear FTC: Your proposed new rule (Business Opportunity Rule, R511993) will negatively affect the direct market selling industry. Proposed requirements include unnecessary alarm about the legitimacy of companies and their compensation plans, a gross violation of privacy of all distributors, a time-consuming sign-up and disclosure process that may lead to enthusiastic prospects losing interest, and it will increase of expenses for both company and distributor. This is a unfair limitation to citizens rights to conduct a legal business. Please abandon R511993.
