The FTC has initiated an extensive antitrust investigation into Microsoft, scrutinizing various facets of its operations, including AI and cloud computing. This follows broader regulatory efforts under the Biden administration targeting Big Tech's dominance, with similar probes into companies like Google and Nvidia.
The inquiry also examines accusations about restrictive licensing in Microsoft's cloud business, which allegedly limits data migration to competing platforms. As President-elect Trump prepares to take office, the probe may mark the administration's final major regulatory actions against Big Tech.
