FTC Chair Khan hopes Amazon, Facebook won’t get ‘sweetheart deal’ from Trump in antitrust cases

 L. Khan's exit interview, CNBC, here

"What the reules are for speech online is an enormously important question, and a world and an economy in which those rules are being set by a single company - or even a single executive - is deeply at odds with why we have the antitrust laws and the antimonopoly laws. This is an economy that has thrived when we have fierce competition and I heard a lot of concerns, including on both sides of the aisle, about what happens when you concentrate control and have gatekeepers over who gets heard and who gets heard and who gets to speak...I think we should have an economy where the decisions of a single company or a single executive aren't having extrordinary impact on speech online...It will be intererint to see what happens. We have of course litigation ongoing, there's going to be a trial starting this spring,  FTC v. Facebook , alleging that their prior acquisition were illegal."
