FTC Seeks Public Comment on X Corp. Petition to Alter Twitter Settlement

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is inviting public comment on a petition from X Corp., formerly known as Twitter, regarding its 2022 settlement order with the agency.

X Corp. has requested that the FTC either set aside or modify the existing order. The original settlement in 2022 charged Twitter with deceptively using account security data to sell targeted advertisements.

The FTC's decision to seek public input underscores the ongoing regulatory scrutiny of major tech platforms. This process allows stakeholders to provide their perspectives on the proposed changes to the settlement.
