FTC Drafts CIDs for OpenAI, Anthropic After 53 Rogue-Agent Leaks
The FTC has confirmed a consumer-protection investigation into OpenAI, Anthropic, and other AI providers and is drafting civil investigative demands, marking a procedural escalation toward potential Section 5 enforcement. The reported scope spans unfair or deceptive practices, rogue AI agents, healthcare-data handling, and children's mental health. Legal and RegTech teams should treat the CID phase as the trigger for document preservation, privilege review, and regulatory risk assessment.
