I saw on another website is consumer protection law so im confused
I understand the confusion, as both Consumer Protection Law and Competitive Law (or Antitrust Law) can intersect in certain areas, but they serve different primary purposes.
-
Consumer Protection Law focuses on safeguarding the rights of consumers, ensuring they are protected from unfair practices, fraud, and harmful products. It is designed to promote fairness in what businesses can sell to consumers.
-
Competitive Law (Antitrust Law) is aimed at promoting fair competition and preventing unfair business practices that could harm competition as a whole. This includes prohibiting monopolistic practices and ensuring that no single entity can dominate a market unfairly.
In your question about laws preventing unfair practices to gain an advantage over competitors, the answer is most closely related to Competitive Law. However, if the context of the question specifically pertains to protecting consumers from unfair business practices, then Consumer Protection Law could also be a valid answer.
If the focus is strictly on competition among businesses, then Competitive Law is the correct choice. If it relates more to how businesses treat consumers and protect consumer rights, then Consumer Protection Law would be appropriate.
