Staying Ahead of FTC Enforcement Trends: What In-House Counsel Need to Know for 2025

As 2024 brought a wave of aggressive rulemaking by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), topics such as consumer reviews, influencer endorsements, “junk fees,” “dark patterns,” and “subscription traps” dominated the regulatory landscape. Under the Biden administration, the FTC embraced an expansive interpretation of unfair and deceptive practices, showcasing its authority through new and proposed rules.
