Microsoft faces an EU probe over concerns that it is driving out competition by unfairly bundling its Teams video conferencing app with its popular business software suite.
The European Commission said it opened the formal investigation to examine whether Microsoft may have breached EU competition rules by tying or bundling Teams to its Office 365 and Microsoft 365 packages.
