Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 3 costs, 0 mixed.
Ban on False Voice-Data Claims
The consent order forbids 1010 Digital from saying its advertising services collect or use "Voice Data," obtain consumers' consent for such collection or use, or offer precise geographic targeting. The order specifically prohibits misrepresentations about the qualities or features of its advertising or marketing services and about collection, use, consent, or geographic targeting of Voice Data.
Company Pays $25,000 to FTC
Provision II requires 1010 Digital to pay $25,000 in monetary relief to the Federal Trade Commission. That payment is part of the Proposed Order resolving the alleged deceptive practices.
Customer Data Provided for Redress
Provision IV requires 1010 Digital to provide customer information so the Commission can efficiently administer redress to people affected by the deception. If you were affected, this step enables the FTC to identify you and potentially deliver remedies.
20-Year Duration of the Order
Provision IX states the Proposed Order will remain in effect for 20 years, with certain exceptions. That means the injunctive and recordkeeping requirements apply to 1010 Digital for two decades if the order is made final.
Recordkeeping and Compliance Duties
Provisions VI–VIII require 1010 Digital to keep records, provide documents, and submit information needed for the FTC to monitor compliance with the order. These obligations support the Commission's ability to verify the company follows the order.

2026-16617, Regulatory Agenda
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC or Commission) is publishing its regulatory agenda in accordance with section 22(d)(1) of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. 57b-3(d)(1) and the Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 to 612, as amended by the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act. The Commission's agenda follows guidelines and procedures issued September 15, 2025, by the Office of Management and Budget in accordance with the provisions of Executive Order 12866, "Regulatory Planning and Review," 58 FR 51735 (Oct. 4, 1993) and Executive Order 14192, "Unleashing Prosperity Through Deregulation," 90 FR 9065 (Feb. 6, 2025). The Government-wide Unified Agenda of Federal Regulatory and Deregulatory Actions includes a list of all regulatory actions under development or review and is scheduled for publication in its entirety on www.reginfo.gov and www.regulations.gov in a format that offers users a greatly enhanced ability to obtain information from the agenda database. The RFA requires publication in the Federal Register of agenda entries for rules that are likely to have a significant impact on a substantial number of small entities (5 U.S.C. 602) and any such rules that the agency has identified for periodic review under section 610 of the RFA. For the 2026 agenda, the Commission has no rule that meets the RFA's publication requirements. The Commission has identified rulemakings that are likely to have some impact on small entities, but do not meet the RFA's publication requirements. The current rulemakings that are likely to have some impact on small entities are: (1) the Energy Labeling Rule, 16 CFR 305; (2) the Alternative Fuel Rule, 16 CFR 309; (3) the removal of the vacated 2024 amendments to the Negative Option Rule, 16 CFR 425; (4) the Cooling-Off Rule, 16 CFR 429; (5) the Amplifier Rule, 16 CFR 432; (6) the Business Opportunity Rule, 16 CFR 437; (7) the Impersonation Rule, 16 CFR 461; (8) the withdrawal of the final rule for the vacated Combating Auto Retail Scams Rule (16 CFR 463); (9) the proposed Earnings Claims Trade Regulation Rule, to be codified at 16 CFR 462; (10) Unfair or Deceptive Fees Trade Regulation Rule, 16 CFR 464; and (11) the removal of the vacated Non-Compete Clause Rule from 16 CFR 910. The Commission's rulemaking review process carefully considers regulatory burdens and streamlines rules when feasible and appropriate. The majority of the rulemakings listed in the agenda are being conducted as part of the Commission's systematic review of all of its regulations and guides on a rotating basis. Under the Commission's program, rules are reviewed on a 10-year schedule. In each rule review, the Commission requests public comments on, among other things, the economic impact and benefits of the rule; possible conflict between the rule and state, local, or other federal laws or regulations; and the effect on the rule of any technological, economic, or other industry changes. These reviews incorporate and expand upon the review required by the RFA and regulatory reform initiatives directing agencies to conduct a review of all regulations and eliminate or revise those that are outdated or otherwise in need of reform. Except for notice of completed actions, the information in this agenda represents the judgment of Commission staff, based upon information now available. Each projected date of action reflects FTC staff's assessment that the specified event will occur this year. No final determination by the staff or the Commission respecting the need for or the substance of a rule should be inferred from the notation of projected events in this agenda. In most instances, the dates of future events are listed by month, not by a specific day. The information in this agenda may change as new information, changes of circumstances, or changes in the law occur.
