Answer: B - The U.S. Federal Trade Commission is assigned the task of establishing rules on privacy. It is also responsible for federal enforcement actions. The FTC is most likely to engage in policy-setting governing privacy issues brought about by newer technologies such as AI and machine learning.
There has been an ongoing debate regarding whether the FTC should and can begin setting standards and regulations to protect consumer privacy as new technologies, like AI, are deployed. According to the International Association of Privacy Professionals, in December of 2021, the FTC filed an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking which initiates the agency’s consideration of setting rules to address privacy issues brought about by newer tech.
