I would think as a brand owner that we would participate in a fair and equitable amount of investment in the protection of that, but we'd like to see front-line officers given the authority and the power to seize and detain those goods. We'd then like to see a meaningful and cost-effective way of dealing with those goods without releasing them back into the chain of commerce, if you will, by returning the shipment and putting the onus back on the counterfeiter or importer to prove that those goods are actually legitimate. It seems like the onus now is on us as brand owners to take that and ensure that we're, first of all, showing that it's a counterfeit or unauthorized through the legal recourse measures made available to us, but the counterfeiters don't have any onus to show that they have legitimate goods, or legitimate rights to the products.
