Shelter In Place Institute: The Future of Consumer Protection and Privacy - What to Expect from the FTC
As the election approaches, our government prepares for a transition – either to the second term under President Trump or to the Biden Administration. As this is occurring, consumer protection law also finds itself in transition. Kelley Drye D.C. partners Christie Grymes Thompson and John Villafranco will focus on what this means, in terms of recent enforcement activities and priorities related to privacy, data security, marketing, advertising, and other areas of consumer protection.
