About this listen
In this episode of "Clearly Conspicuous," consumer protection attorney Anthony DiResta provides an early analysis of the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) direction under Chair Andrew Ferguson, emphasizing that the agency is intensifying, not scaling back, its enforcement efforts despite broader deregulatory trends. Mr. DiResta examines recent FTC actions that span multiple sectors, including holding a workshop on the tech industry's impact on families, issuing new rules against deceptive pricing, targeting business scams and increasing scrutiny on artificial intelligence (AI) product claims. This episode highlights the FTC's multi-agency collaboration and suggests that, although enforcement may become more selective, the focus will be on precedent-setting cases. Mr. DiResta cautions companies to not interpret deregulatory rhetoric as a relaxation of compliance expectations and instead understand that the need for robust, well-documented and proactive compliance measures has never been greater.
