Part 2 of the essay on the RERA-is-SEERA-is-AmericaCompetesAct has been picked up by E-Scrap News, "IN MY OPINION" Op-ed.
Here again is the section 30612 in the House Report version.

Fun fact: CAER rep quoted in the Pro-30612 section was also, in 2006, selling to the same contract manufacturers I was selling to. I have photos.
This was a factory owned by Rowell Yang of Proview, who was in a much-publicized trademark war with Apple (Mr. Yang, who I met a few times, had trademarked "iPad" in China and Hong Kong).
So when Apple's lobbyist accuses the Chinese contract manufacturer of "counterfeiting", they mean... reuse is bad.
