EPIC Seeks from FTC All Consumer Complaints about Facebook

Posted on March 19, 2019June 25, 2025 by Dissent

From EPIC.org:

EPIC has filed an urgent Freedom of Information Act request to the Federal Trade Commission seeking all pending complaints. As a result of the extensive work of consumer organizations, the Commission issued a consent order against Facebook in 2011 barring the company from making any future misrepresentations about the privacy and security of a user’s personal information. But the FTC has failed to issue any fines or declare any of Facebook’s actions, including the Cambridge Analytical scandal, a violation of the consent order. The FTC has also not published the number of pending consumer complaints against Facebook. With the one-year deadline of the reopening of the Facebook investigation approaching, EPIC has launched the campaign #EnforceTheOrder.
