- totalZero 6y agoWhat you said was that they often use the word "observe" rather than "regulate," and that this is somehow reflective of the way they do their jobs. That's a purely semantic viewpoint and a ridiculous way to judge the efficacy of any regulator. In actual fact, they use the term "enforcement action." Here's their report from 2020.
