In July 2023, the Commission published a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPRM”) titled “Rule on the Use of Consumer Reviews and Testimonials” (“Reviews and Testimonials Rule” or “Rule”), which would prohibit certain specified unfair or deceptive acts or practices involving consumer reviews or testimonials. Following receipt of public comments and informal hearings, the final rule was approved by the Commission in August 2024.
