How would you feel about a government agency dedicated to preventing the sale of fake products?

Looking at Amazon, Aliexpress, even Walmart, there's a lot of products that aren't what they claim, such as lying about the capacity of batteries. Customers have to figure these things out for themselves and 'metagame' the system.
I don't think this should be allowed, but what are your thoughts?

As others have pointed out, we have agencies to do exactly that, but people voted decisively against them this past election
