The FTC has been on a bit of a tear since Khan was appointed in 2021. I guess this one finally made it through the paperwork now. Sort by date here to see a bunch of tech-related stuff they've done under this admin: https://arstechnica.com/search/?q=ftc

lol, ok. I don't know what a "tear" is but everything listed there is either a lawsuit or news that a court struck down their policy. I don't see other policies like this one. Also check the dates, way off. haha

https://grammarist.com/idiom/on-a-tear/ - "On a tear means someone is in a state of energetic activity, often with a hint of recklessness or enthusiasm, usually after a period of quiet or inactivity."

Tear like rip, torn, shredding, not like cry.
