What John said reminds me of a real story. 

About 10 years ago a friend of mine was working for a small PC company as an 
EMC engineer. A marketing person moved that label with the text of "This device 
has not been authorized as required by the rules of the Federal Communications 
Commission. ... " from the conspicuous front to the back of the PC in a 
computer show. This action was found by FCC and caused a fine to the company.

Thanks.
