The Election's Impact on the FTC Will Bring Big Changes, But Being Vigilant Must Remain a Priority

In this episode of his "Clearly Conspicuous" podcast series, "The Election's Impact on the FTC Will Bring Big Changes, But Being Vigilant Must Remain a Priority," consumer protection attorney Anthony DiResta explores the potential changes at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) following the recent election. Mr. DiResta is a former director at a regional office of the FTC who has defended companies in dozens of FTC investigations and who counsels companies in compliance management and risk assessments. He draws on this experience to examine how the FTC's structure and enforcement approach may evolve under the new administration. He also dives into a deep discussion on the role of state attorneys general in consumer protection and offers practical guidance for businesses navigating these changes as Republicans take control of both the White House and Congress. This insightful episode provides valuable perspective on the shifting landscape of consumer protection regulation and enforcement.
