Facebook and Google, in the span of less than a week, have both been hit with antitrust probes as big tech companies face a renewed wave of scrutiny.
Google’s “dominance in the telecommunications and search engine industries” will be the subject of an investigation announced on Sept. 9 by a partnership of about 50 U.S. states and territories, led by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.
