• Do you know about the Federal Trade Commission? The mission of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is: (1) to prevent business practices that are anticompetitive or deceptive or unfair to consumers; (2) to enhance informed consumer choice and public understanding of the competitive process; and (3) to accomplish this without unduly burdening legitimate business activity.
• The FTC has three bureaus: Consumer Protection, Competition, and Economics. However, we focus mainly on the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection for this discussion question (https://www.ftc.gov/about-ftc/bureaus-offices/bureau-consumer-protection).
