Federal Trade Commission (FTC):
Example of application: The FTC investigates and takes action against companies that engage in deceptive advertising practices. For example, if a company claims their product can cure a disease without scientific evidence to support that claim, the FTC could take legal action against them.
Example of violation: A company falsely advertises a weight loss product as a "miracle pill" that guarantees results within a week, when in reality the product has no proven efficacy and may even be harmful to consumers. This would be a violation of the FTC's rules against deceptive advertising.
