1. @FTC & DOJ are proposing updates to the form that firms fill out when pursuing acquisitions that must be reported to the antitrust agencies. These proposed updates would fill in key information gaps and promote efficient and effective enforcement. ftc.gov/news-events/news/pre…

1. @FTC has taken action against @amazon for tricking users into signing up for Prime subscriptions—and then deliberately making it hard to cancel. We charge that these deceptive tactics violate the FTC Act and the Restore Online Shoppers’ Confidence Act. ftc.gov/news-events/news/pre…

We have confirmed Alvaro Bedoya to serve as FTC Commissioner! This brings the FTC back to full strength to enforce antitrust protections and consumer privacy, and fight price gougers. This is pivotal to fully examining record energy company profits and inflated gas prices.

This year, the Commission adopted 15 #antitrust final decisions, 12 of them with fines totalling €6.3 billion, e.g. Qualcomm, Android, and 4 cartels. We also opened 4 new investigations. We'll keep working in 2019 to avoid anti-competitive practices that harm EU consumers.

€1.75 bn in state support from DE, FR, IT and the UK trigger private investment to reach a total of almost €8bn in risky, ground breaking R&D in microelectronics - an important project of common European interest. Knowledge will be shared and competition not disturbed. Great!
