I prefer this way of doing things to the alternatives.
One would be to prevent anybody who didn't have a local olympic committee from taking part. The other would be to have them run under a flag of convenience for any country that would have them.
The former is totally unfair. The latter may deprive somebody else of a place.
The ridiculous thing is that while they say spectators won't be allowed to display logos of anything other than games sponsors I'll bet they won't stop pro photographers from using cameras other than Panasonic "The official camera of the Olympic Games".
Be reasonable, the majority of professional sports photographere use Nikon. Are they going to make those guys blank out all their Nikon logos or force them to use Panasonic?

Before anybody suggests they invited the local schools down, they didn't.
