There is a newly urgent push from outside the pharmaceutical research and development community to get drug firms and the government to disclose the results of all tests conducted on new drugs and to immediately reveal information about problems that develop after those drugs go on the market. Consumers and health care providers say they're tired of finding out belatedly that negative information has come to light about the drugs they take or prescribe.
Of course, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has for years been looking out for the public by requiring extensive testing of all new drugs before they can be placed on the market, but critics charge that the agency, being intimately tied to the very industry it is policing, has not done enough. High on the list of concerns is the fact that after a drug is approved, its effects on consumers are not generally studied at present.
Consumer advocates have taken up the slack they see in the FDA's oversight of the drug manufacturing industry. For example, consumer group Public Citizen recently announced it had launched an updated Web site, www.WorstPills.org, to provide consumers with information about drugs the group considers unsafe or ineffective. The group, whose drug information Web site is accessible by subscription, claims that nearly 200 drugs on the market today are unsafe or ineffective.

When the SEC issues the next annual enforcement report for fiscal year 2025, we expect securities offering actions and investment adviser actions will almost certainly be up, and the “crypto” and “cyber” cases will almost certainly be down. Public statements by the new SEC administration have said as much, but even more telling than public statements are the allocation of limited enforcement resources.
The VPPA may be nearly four-decades old and video-rental stores largely a thing of the past, but the rise of online content, streaming services and ancillary activities has brought with it frequent litigation based on the VPPA. The key challenge in these litigations is how to interpret the VPPA’s 1980s terms in light of today’s digital advances.
