A quick definition of Baby FTC Act:

Term: BABY FTC ACT

Definition: The Baby FTC Act is a law in some states that says companies can't lie or be unfair when they sell things. It's like a rulebook for how businesses should treat their customers. Just like how we have rules in school to make sure everyone is treated fairly, this law helps make sure companies are fair to their customers.

A more thorough explanation:

BABY FTC ACT

The Baby FTC Act is a state law that prohibits businesses from engaging in deceptive or unfair trade practices, similar to the Federal Trade Commission Act.

One example of a deceptive trade practice that would be prohibited under the Baby FTC Act is a company making false claims about the benefits of their product. For instance, if a company claimed that their weight loss supplement could help people lose 10 pounds in a week without any exercise or dietary changes, that would be considered deceptive.

An example of an unfair trade practice that would be prohibited under the Baby FTC Act is a company using aggressive or misleading sales tactics to pressure consumers into buying their products. For example, if a door-to-door salesperson used high-pressure tactics to convince an elderly person to buy an expensive vacuum cleaner they didn't need, that would be considered unfair.

The Baby FTC Act is designed to protect consumers from businesses that engage in deceptive or unfair practices. The examples provided illustrate how companies might violate this law by making false claims or using manipulative sales tactics. By prohibiting these practices, the Baby FTC Act helps ensure that consumers can make informed decisions and are not taken advantage of by unscrupulous businesses.

How long can I delay sending my fall grades if they hurt my GPA? I’m still waiting on decisions and ideally I’m hoping they decide BEFORE seeing my new grades
TGM
18:27

Dkk
18:33
Honestly you could just wait until someone actually asks for your fall grades. Who knows.
Dkk
18:34

18:34
