I think it has to go further than that. For example, if a school makes no claims of employability, but they do claim that a class will teach a skill and then (as in mindcrime's example) it turns out that the professor is ten years old and spends the whole class time playing League of Legends, surely that's fraud too.
- Crito 13y agoI would expect that would be bog-standard fraud (I suspect that most of the actionable concerns are). I mean like, if a paintball arena claims to let you play paintball, then after you pay them they hand you some water pistols and tell you to have fun, that is surely fraud. I doubt we'd need to have any sort of special regulation to tackle that sort of issue.
- mindcrime 13y agoSure, fraud is fraud, and that's the idea behind "rule of law". If someone defrauds you, you have a claim against them to be compensated accordingly. But that's orthogonal to the idea of having The State decide, a priori, who is and who isn't allowed to do business.
