FCC Observing National Consumer Protection Week

The FCC is observing National Consumer Protection Week, said Alison Kutler, acting chief of the FCC Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau. The week is a “coordinated effort to encourage consumers to take full advantage of their rights and make better-informed decisions,” she said in a Monday blog post. “This is our bureau’s daily mission on behalf of the Commission.” The FCC knows “changes resulting from technology innovation occur rapidly in the marketplace, presenting new opportunities, but also new challenges for consumers,” she wrote.
