I was honored to present on the Trump/Vance FTC’s recent enforcement actions protecting children’s privacy at the Global Privacy Assembly in Seoul. The PIPC of Korea was an excellent host in their beautiful city. Children’s privacy will remain a top priority for the FTC.

AI has the potential for tremendous opportunities. We must prepare and protect our children for this moment. The FTC launched a comprehensive 6(b) study to learn valuable information about children’s and teens’ use of companion chatbots.

Yesterday, I was delighted to announce the FTC and Utah’s important action against Pornhub in the Utah State Capitol where I was joined with former colleagues and friends. Utah was a tremendous state partner in this fight against child sexual abuse material.

The FTC and Utah took action against Pornhub and others for deceiving users about child sexual abuse material and non-consensual material on their websites. The world should take note that the FTC will use all of its tools to protect children online.

2. Products advertised as “Made in the USA” must be made in America. The FTC’s enforcement work helps ensure that consumers can rely on “Made in the USA” labels and feel confident they are actually supporting American businesses, manufacturing, and workers.

1. The FTC designated July as “Made in America” month. While the focus is on FTC’s enforcement work, we also visited manufacturers of American-made products. As an avid skier, it was fascinating to tour a ski lift factory in Utah! https://t.co/tjXSIrlkIK

Today was the FTC’s Workshop, “The Dangers of ‘Gender-Affirming Care’ for Minors.” These are extremely important issues and I was happy to work with Chairman Ferguson @AFergusonFTC and Commissioner Meador @MeadorFTC on this Workshop. Here are my remarks:

Last week, I represented the U.S. at the G7 Privacy Roundtable. Canada was a gracious host and we had productive discussions regarding children’s privacy, collaboration on shared enforcement priorities, and privacy issues relating to quantum computing and AI.

The FTC’s Robinson-Patman complaint against Pepsi was a colossal mistake. Today, we have dismissed the complaint, allowing our dedicated staff to focus on legitimate enforcement actions that protect consumers.

Beautiful day at the White House with @AFergusonFTC and @MeadorFTC for the signing of the TAKE IT DOWN Act. Thank you to @FLOTUS for championing this important legislation to protect Americans from revenge porn and other illicit images. @FTC is committed to enforcing it.

I had the honor of a lifetime last week when I delivered the convocation speech at my alma mater—the University of Utah S.J. Quinney College of Law. Congrats to the class of 2025!

This type of conduct, if true, is extremely alarming. The FTC wants to hear from tech platform users who have been banned, shadow banned, demonetized, or otherwise censored.
🚨 Please watch this video, which describes in detail the ruthless and elaborate defamation campaign waged by Meta AI against @robbystarbuck I look forward to hearing Meta’s side of this—but from what I’m seeing, it doesn’t look good for Meta In fact, it looks very, very bad

I was honored to present this morning with E.U. Ambassador to the U.S. Jovita Neliupšienė at the World Trade Center Utah (WTC Utah) board meeting where I discussed E.U.-U.S. cooperation in fulfilling the FTC’s mission of promoting competition and protecting consumers.
