EU Launches Antitrust Probe Against Tech Giants: Apple, Google, and Meta Under Scrutiny

European Regulators Investigate Potential Violations of Digital Markets Act, Threatening Big Fines

Apple (AAPL), Alphabet’s Google (GOOG), and Meta Platforms (META) are facing scrutiny from European antitrust regulators over potential breaches of the EU’s new Digital Markets Act (DMA), which came into effect on March 7. The investigation could lead to substantial fines for the tech giants, with violations carrying penalties of up to 10% of their global annual turnover.

The DMA aims to challenge the dominance of these companies by promoting competition in online services, such as social media platforms, internet browsers, and app stores. By facilitating easier transitions between competing services, the law seeks to create opportunities for smaller companies to thrive.

One of the key areas of concern is whether Apple complies with obligations under the DMA, such as allowing users to uninstall software applications easily on its iOS operating system and providing options to change default settings or access alternative browsers and search engines on iPhones. Regulators are also investigating whether Apple imposes limitations that hinder app developers from informing users about offers outside its App Store without charge.

Similarly, Alphabet’s Google is under scrutiny for its fee structures and whether it favors its own vertical search engines over rivals. Meta’s no-ads subscription service, introduced last November, has also triggered scrutiny, with regulators calling for free alternative options.

The investigations underscore growing regulatory pressure on Big Tech globally, with U.S. antitrust regulators also challenging their practices. As the EU executive aims to conclude the probes within a year, the tech industry faces heightened scrutiny and potential repercussions for non-compliance with evolving regulations
