FTC Releases Agenda for Thursday's Open Meeting

The FTC will hold an open meeting at 1 p.m. Thursday, the agency announced. The tentative agenda includes a vote on a policy statement on “enforcement against unfair, deceptive, and anticompetitive practices related to gig work,” which often involves digital apps. FTC staff will deliver a report on dark patterns, and the commission will vote on whether to issue the report. Staff will also present findings from public comments related to the agency’s NPRM to address “government, business, and nonprofit impersonation fraud.” The commission will vote on whether to formally initiate a rulemaking.
