I was very pleased to see Chairman Ferguson issue a request for information last week seeking public comment regarding technology platform censorship. He highlighted that Current actions by tech platforms may violate their own terms of service in violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act. Mr. Meador, how should the FTC address the challenges posed by emerging technologies and big tech? Thank you, Mr. Chairman. I believe the FTC has taken the first step, which is to collect all of the facts. (02:58–03:07)
