Abstract
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is the chief consumer cyber security regulator in the United States. Through its actions against unfair and deceptive practices, it regulates surveillance and creates cyber security law. This research paper aims to review the premise of the FTC’s authority about its legitimacy on cyber security regulation. The paper then focuses on the FTC’s regulation on monitoring business. Recently, its regulation has expanded from deceptive to unfair practices, particularly on spyware technology.
