Elon Musk tries again to escape FTC audits of X data handling
摘要
埃隆·马斯克再次试图摆脱美国联邦贸易委员会（FTC）对X平台数据处理方式的严格审计。FTC在马斯克接管推特前下达了一项为期20年的数据隐私命令，要求X进行定期独立审计，并授权该机构根据需要索取文件以确保合规。该命令源于推特此前自愿披露的一起数据泄露事件，涉及用户用于双重认证的电话号码和邮箱被误用于定向广告。推特为此支付了1.5亿美元罚款，并同意接受FTC监督
Critics hope to keep Elon Musk from escaping a strict data-privacy order imposed by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) shortly before he took over Twitter.
The FTC order placed restrictions on X's data use for 20 years, while requiring regular independent audits and granting the agency authority to request documents as needed to ensure compliance.
The FTC’s action came after Twitter voluntarily disclosed that between May 2013 and September 2019, a coding error accidentally allowed phone numbers and email addresses that users shared for two-factor authentication purposes to be used for targeted advertising aimed at those same users. In a settlement that came just months before Musk's 2022 takeover, Twitter agreed to pay $150 million and to allow the FTC to monitor the platform's data-handling practices until 2042 in order to protect user privacy.
