FTC and States Crack Down on Hims & Hers for Deceptive Billing and Health Data Sharing
The FTC, joined by Utah and California, filed a federal lawsuit against telehealth provider Hims & Hers alleging deceptive billing (charging nearly immediately after intake and making cancellation difficult) and sharing sensitive health information with third‑party ad platforms, despite assurances of privacy; the case, filed in the Northern District of California, seeks to halt the practices and impose remedies under federal and state laws.
