FTC failed to follow rulemaking process required by US law, judges rule.

Khan’s announcement of the now-vacated rule said that too many “businesses make people jump through endless hoops just to cancel a subscription. The FTC’s rule will end these tricks and traps, saving Americans time and money. Nobody should be stuck paying for a service they no longer want.”

Good thing representatives only have to tell their constituents why this is bad. No need to take it all the way to voters.

    It sounds like this ruling is based on a technicality. If so, couldn’t FTC make the same decision, this time better following letter of the law?

      See the beauty of doing this now is that khan has been improperly removed from her position at the FTC by the current administration, of course the court will not take up the case about her removal, just strike down rules on technicalities now that they won’t be resubmitted.
