New FTC Chair Likely to Keep Up Enforcement on Auto-Renewals
Briefly

Under the Trump administration, businesses are facing a new regulatory landscape characterized by robust enforcement from the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) focusing on marketing practices, particularly regarding privacy and deceptive practices. Despite President Trump's anti-regulatory stance, FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson emphasizes enforcing existing laws, signaling a firm approach toward deceptive business practices. Ferguson's leadership contrasts with past initiatives aiming for expanded regulatory powers, especially following the AMG Capital Management Supreme Court decision, underscoring a shift towards accepting innovative technologies while maintaining traditional enforcement priorities.
Newly minted FTC Chair Andrew Ferguson has strongly advocated FTC enforcement against businesses and made it clear: The Commission will focus primarily on our traditional role as a cop on the beat.
Ferguson has dissented from previous expansive regulatory standards which aimed to regain monetary relief capabilities for the FTC after the Supreme Court's AMG Capital Management decision disrupted the agency's authority.
