Lina Khan has argued for years that the time has come to rein in some of the world’s largest tech companies. On Tuesday, she made one of her most high-profile moves when the agency she chairs, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC), filed a sweeping antitrust lawsuit against Amazon.
Khan, 34, was appointed as chair of the FTC in 2021, becoming the youngest person in history and the most progressive in more than a decade to be appointed to the position.
