Listen "A Roadmap for Emerging Consumer Protection Issues"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of "Clearly Conspicuous," consumer protection attorney Anthony DiResta covers the emerging issues driving federal and state enforcement and private litigation. He highlights six themes shaping priorities: artificial intelligence (AI) and automation, advertising and marketing practices, privacy and data security, unfair and abusive practices, sector-specific scrutiny of financial services, health and environmental claims, and escalating coordination among enforcers. Mr. DiResta explains how agencies are intensifying oversight of AI transparency and bias, influencer and native advertising disclosures, data collection and breach response, "dark patterns," hidden fees and products targeting vulnerable consumers. He then describes practical steps to help mitigate unwanted attention from the government, from AI audits and human oversight to substantiation, social media policies, incident response plans and consumer-centric design. He concludes by highlighting how important it is to build trust through first instance compliance to reduce risk and position your business to thrive in a dynamic enforcement landscape.
