The Federal Trade Commission workshop on Wednesday was more aggressively partisan than past tech-focused events.

The event was originally announced with the milder tagline “Monopolizing Kids’ Time Online ” at the end of the Biden administration.

With Republicans in control of all three branches of government, the tone has shifted.
