FTC Data Privacy Probe Expands to Charter Communications

The FTC added Charter Communications to its list of companies from which it's getting data on broadband customer data collection and sharing (see 1903260072). The agency said Thursday the move came as it was honing its privacy practice requests by also withdrawing its AT&T and Verizon requests and sending orders to AT&T advertising subsidiary AppNexus and Verizon ad subsidiaries Verizon Online and Oath America. Commissioners approved the moves unanimously.
