Embattled Data Broker Highlights FTC Commissioner’s Resignation
Advertising Partner Jeffrey A. Greenbaum is quoted in the article, “Embattled Data Broker Highlights FTC Commissioner’s Resignation” published by MediaPost. The article discusses a filing from mobile data broker Kochava asking U.S. District Court Judge B. Lynn Winmill to note FTC Commissioner Christine Wilson’s public accusations against Lina Khan. The filing comes in the midst of the FTC’s lawsuit against Kochava, which claims that Kochava sold sensitive location data that could reveal individuals’ visits. Jeff is quoted saying, “The fact that Commissioner Wilson is resigning from the FTC and has serious policy disagreements with the current FTC’s leadership doesn’t seem to me to have any bearing at all on the lawsuit.”
Jeff adds that Kochava’s new filings are “theatrics.” He says, “The commission is certainly taking a different approach to enforcement and is coming up with out-of-the-box ways to address what it perceives as serious harms, but the FTC’s unfairness jurisdiction is well established.”
