I would not be hopeful. From AP news:
> Four of the FTC’s five commissioners voted to approve the rule. Commissioner Andrew Ferguson, – who is President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to replace Khan, was the one dissenting vote.

- hnburnsy 2y agoOne republican commissioner voted with the rule, and Ferguson dissented based on lame duck rule making, not the merits, while agreeing that the FTC rule making was valid for businesses like tickets and short term lodging.
- Cornbilly 2y agoThat's a moronic dissent. It's either valid or not, lame duck or no.
