Topic: Game Changing FTC Developments That You Need To Know About

The FTC just held a workshop on Dark Patterns, including manipulative user interface design, intentional or unintentional, on websites and mobile apps. What laws, rules or norms do they involve and how will they be regulated going forward? The Supreme Court recently came down with a 9-0 decision in AMC Capital Management vs. FTC holding that Section 13 (b) of the FTC Act does not authorize awarding damages for consumer injury, including restitution. The scene shifts to Congress and possible significant law changes, how will these affect your practice and business?
