Multiple reports have confirmed that the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has initiated a sweeping antitrust inquiry, as reported by the Financial Times.
The investigation encompasses a wide spectrum of the US tech giant’s services, including cloud computing, cybersecurity, and artificial intelligence, according to reports from Bloomberg and other media sites on Wednesday.
The FTC is reportedly investigating if Microsoft’s public cloud, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity product lines are among the various areas of the business where antitrust legislation may have been broken.
