Are AI Chatbots Safe for Our Kids? FTC Investigates Now!

Last week, we published three separate posts that looked at the FTC's recent settlement with Aylo, the parent company of multiple adult websites including, most famously, Pornhub. Those posts, written by Stanford HAI policy fellow Riana Pfefferkorn, examined the legally complicated but very important issues that arise from the settlement forcing Aylo to scan for CSAM. This week, Riana joins us on the podcast alongside TechFreedom president Berin Szoka, to go even deeper into the legal weeds and explain how this settlement could doom criminal CSAM cases.

The FTC Buries Its Ban on Non-Competes, But Sharpens its Aim on Violations

In this episode of "Clearly Conspicuous," consumer protection attorney Anthony DiResta unpacks a recent update in Trump v. Slaughter, in which the U.S. Supreme Court issued a stay allowing President Donald Trump's removal of Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter to stand while the case makes its way through the appeals process. He previews full arguments in December of this year that could revisit – and even overturn – Humphrey's Executor. Mr. DiResta explains the FTC's origins, structure and independence, as well as the 1935 precedent set in Humphrey's Executor limiting presidential removal of FTC commissioners. He additionally reviews Justice Elena Kagan's dissent in the court's order and analyzes how the move signals a potential recalibration of separation of powers. The episode outlines far-reaching implications if removal protections are narrowed: greater presidential control over independent agencies (FTC, National Labor Relations Board (NLRB), Federal Communications Commission (FCC), Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB)), reduced institutional independence, more litigation over "for cause" standards and broader precedent shifts affecting agency governance. The discussion closes with key questions for businesses and counsel to monitor as the future of the FTC, and independent commissions more broadly, may be shaped by the court's forthcoming decision.


The Future of the FTC: in the Hands of the Supreme Court

Még kamatok nélkül is könnyen előfordulhat, hogy a felvett összeg dupláját kell visszafizetnie a Providenthez hitelért fordulóknak. Az úgynevezett otthonszolgáltatási díjjal alaposan elszállhatnak a kölcsön díjai, a legszegényebb magyar településeken ugyanakkor még ezzel együtt is nagyon népszerű a szolgáltatás.

A Direkt36 podcastjában Janecskó Kata és Tárkányi Flóra cikkéről beszélgetünk. Ebben annak jártak utána, hogy miért épp a legkiszolgáltatottabb helyzetben lévők verik magukat komoly adósságokba; hogyan igyekszik a Fradin és annak elnökén, Kubatov Gábor fideszes politikuson keresztül jó kapcsolatokat ápolni a magyar kormánnyal a Provident és hogy más országokban milyen megoldást találtak a hazaihoz hasonló problémákra. 

Az adásban beszélnek azokról a találkozásaikról is, amelyek a gyorskölcsönök miatt súlyosan eladósodott településeken élőkkel történtek.
