Final answer:

The Federal Trade Commission regulates truthful advertising and prevents deceptive practices by companies.


Explanation:

The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is responsible for compelling businesses to run truthful advertisements and preventing deceptive practices.

For example, in the Volkswagen emissions scandal, the FTC filed a complaint against the company for misleading consumers with false claims about low emissions.

Advertisements must be truthful and supported by evidence to ensure consumers are not misled, as mandated by the FTC regulations.
