Thu, Dec 04, 2025 | 11:30 am EST

On Wednesday, December 4 at 11:30 a.m. ET, The Capitol Forum will host Joel Thayer, President of the Digital Progress Institute, for a conference call with our Executive Editor Teddy Downey. The conversation will focus on the FTC’s recent decision in its case against Meta, and what it reveals about how regulators, courts, and advocates are interpreting Section 2 of the Sherman Act in the context of dominant tech platforms. We’ll explore how this case – and others like it – are shaping the future of antitrust enforcement in digital markets.

Join us to learn more about:

  • How the Meta decision may alter the antitrust landscape for Big Tech

  • What Section 2 enforcement looks like in the post-Lina Khan FTC era

  • How prior case law interacts with emerging tech market structures

  • What’s next for regulators and private litigants targeting platform monopolies
