Ms. Jeong is currently the deputy features editor at The Verge. Previously, she worked as a writer for The New York Times and Vice Motherboard. She is also the author of \u201cThe Internet of Garbage,\u201d a book about speech policy and content moderation.

We presented the Internet Protocol Award<\/strong> to Dr. Joseph Lorenzo Hall, Distinguished Technologist at the Internet Society, a global charity that promotes the development of the internet as a global technical infrastructure, a resource to enrich people\u2019s lives, and a force for good in society.

Finally, we presented a President\u2019s Award<\/strong> to Former FTC Commissioner Alvaro Bedoya for his steadfast commitment to consumer protection and fair competition in the digital age. Mr. Bedoya has focused his career on helping those living paycheck to paycheck, including small business owners, working people, and community leaders. He also founded the Center on Privacy & Technology at Georgetown Law and helped establish the U.S. Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Privacy as its first chief counsel. His essay on the subject, \u201cPrivacy as Civil Right,\u201d is featured in textbooks used in U.S. law schools. As a strong supporter of independent regulatory agencies, we are grateful for the courageous stand he has taken in defending the FTC\u2019s independence.<\/p>\n\n\n

In 2025, we also presented a President\u2019s Award<\/strong> to FTC Commissioner Rebecca Kelly Slaughter for her steadfast commitment to consumer protection and fair competition in the digital age. She boasts extensive experience in competition, privacy, and consumer protection. She builds consensus for a progressive vision and staunchly advocates for our nation\u2019s consumers and workers. A proponent of greater resources, transparency, and comprehensive use of the FTC\u2019s authorities, she remains outspoken about the growing threats to competition and the broad abuse of consumers\u2019 data. As a strong supporter of independent regulatory agencies, we are grateful for the courageous stand she has taken in defending the FTC\u2019s independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
