Microsoft may stop bundling Teams with Office amid antitrust probe threat
Microsoft is offering to stop bundling web conferencing and messaging app Teams with Office software to stave off the threat of a full-blown antitrust investigation by European Union regulators.this is a positive first step toward leveling the playing field for businesses in Europe that claim they are locked out by Microsoft's alleged anti-competitive behavior. Slack was one of the companies to make a complaint in 2020 before it was bought by Salesforce.
"We are mindful of our responsibilities in the EU as a major technology company," a Microsoft spokesperson told us."We continue to engage cooperatively with the Commission in its investigation and are open to pragmatic solutions that address its concerns and serve customers well.
