The FTC approved a final order in its complaint against Apple, the commission said in a Thursday release. The FTC initially revealed its complaint in January, alleging Apple failed to notify parents of a 15-minute window after sign-on during which children could make unlimited in-app purchases without authorization (CD Jan 16 p12). Apple agreed to refund at least $32.5 million in the settlement and change its notification and billing practices by March 31. Commissioner Joshua Wright was the lone dissenting voice in the vote on the order, as he was in the initial settlement.
