A comment on VIZIO to Pay $2.2M to FTC. Parent comment
"The complaint alleges that Vizio engaged in unfair trade practices that violated the FTC Act and were unconscionable under New Jersey law." https://www.ftc.gov/news-events/blogs/business-blog/2017/02/...
The FTC act is long-standing federal law and NJ apparently has its own strong laws for this kind of activity. The FTC itself states that there are clear violations of at least these laws, at bare minimum.
