The Federal Trade Commission said it would create a task force to examine potential antitrust violations in the tech industry
WASHINGTON—The Federal Trade Commission said it would create a new task force to examine potential antitrust violations in the tech industry, signaling tougher scrutiny ahead for the sector’s largest firms.
The new FTC scrutiny will be broad, officials said, and will include re-examining mergers that already have been approved by the government. That re-examination could eventually lead the FTC to try to unwind deals that it finds to be having anti-competitive effects now, officials said.
