The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is closely watching Twitter’s moves under new owner Elon Musk months after the agency fined the firm tens of millions of dollars, a spokesperson confirmed this week.

“We are tracking recent developments at Twitter with deep concern,” an FTC spokesperson said in a statement to news outlets on Thursday. “No CEO or company is above the law, and companies must follow our consent decrees. Our revised consent order gives us new tools to ensure compliance, and we are prepared to use them.”
