There's a difference between "fake as defined by the FTC which you will actually get in trouble for" and "fake".

It's your comment in the context of the FTC. You said it was fake, in the context of the FTC. Why are you debating yourself?

Please re-read. The FTC defining it as fake means nothing if the FTC does not, in practice, crack down on it regularly.

The FTC can say it's illegal to do X, and all companies can do X with impunity if the FTC, in practice, does not do anything about it when companies do X.
