The US trade authority FTC accuses the online giant Facebook of unfair competition. In June her first attempt failed. Now she wants to try again.
The US government is starting a new attempt to break up the online giant Facebook in court. The trade authority FTC submitted a corresponding antitrust lawsuit in a revised form.
The responsible judge James Boasberg had rejected the first version in June on the grounds that the FTC had not provided sufficient evidence for an alleged monopoly of Facebook in the market for social networks.
The authority had accused tech billionaire Mark Zuckerberg’s group of unfair competition in the lawsuit originally filed in December and wanted to split off the Instagram photo platform and the WhatsApp chat service. Facebook only bought the companies to eliminate them as competitors, so the argument goes. Judge Boasberg had given the FTC 30 days to review the lawsuit. Thereafter, the deadline was extended to August 19.
