Since 2010, Vizio has sold more than 11 million internet-connected televisions, the FTC says. Vizio must delete all data collected prior to March 1, 2016, create a data privacy program and submit to having the program assessed biennially. The FTC accused Vizio of “engaging in unfair and deceptive acts or practices” in violation of the FTC Act, thus allowing the agency to petition courts to recover “the disgorgement of ill-gotten monies” As is typical with FTC complaints, defendants who choose to settle – rather than taking the matter to court – do not have to admit any wrongdoing.”]
