- Jul 2, 2026TechFreedomSupportAdvocacy📎 Attachment
TechFreedom, a nonpartisan technology policy think tank, supports X's petition to modify or rescind its consent decree. They argue that the FTC's current practice of issuing long-term, "cookie-cutter" consent decrees creates risks of First Amendment violations and suggests that the Commission should establish a consistent rulemaking framework to reform these processes.

Alliance Defending Freedom supports X Corp.’s petition to reopen, set aside, or modify the FTC order, arguing that the company has undergone significant changes and the original remedial purpose of the order has been met. They contend that continued federal supervision creates risks of regulatory overreach and could be used by future administrations to indirectly chill protected speech on the platform.

- Jul 2, 2026Comment from Iowa, Texas, and 11 Additional StatesSupportGovernment📎 Attachment
The Attorneys General of Iowa and a coalition of 11 other states are submitting this comment in strong support of X Corp.’s petition to set aside the 2022 FTC Consent Order against Twitter, Inc. They argue that the order is based on flawed legal premises, applies to a corporate entity that no longer exists in its original form, and creates an undue burden on free speech and American AI innovation.

Torridon Law PLLC, representing a former Attorney General of the United States, supports X Corp.’s petition to reopen or modify the 2022 FTC Decision and Order. The commenter argues that the FTC is using the consent decree as a tool for overbroad policy oversight and "weaponization" rather than for its intended remedial law enforcement purposes.

The commenter opposes X Corp.'s petition to set aside or modify the 2022 FTC consent order, arguing that the company has not met the legal standards for relief. They contend that the order remains necessary due to X Corp.'s history of data breaches, its merger with xAI, and the fact that the company's core business and data architecture remain unchanged despite the change in ownership.
