Lina Khan, 33, became a star while still in law school by arguing that antitrust enforcers should go after the big technology companies, especially Amazon, even if their behavior wasn’t necessarily leading to consumers paying higher prices. Now, as chair of the FTC, Khan is putting those ideas into action.
In recent months, the FTC has sunk planned mergers from chipmaker Nvidia and aerospace manufacturer Lockheed Martin, and in July the Democratic majority on the committee voted against the advice of career staff to sue to block Meta’s planned acquisition of Within Unlimited. In 2022, Khan also intimidated corporate dealmakers with the idea of post-acquisition challenges and by forcing changes on private equity transactions.
