was US Federal Trade Commission chair Lina Khan, in town for meetings related to the grocery chain megamerger of Kroger and Albertsons.
When Khan and her staff got to the front of the line, an employee at the desk asked them to write down their credit card information on a piece of paper. As the leader of the federal agency that, among other things, ensures companies protect consumer data wrote down her details, Khan asked the worker: How exactly was MGM managing the data security around this situation? The desk agent shrugged and said he didn’t know, according to a senior aide who was traveling with Khan and described the experience to Bloomberg as surreal.
