Apple has been on the brink of an antitrust investigation in the US over the last year as the federal government and states have been looking into major tech giants’ business practices and hearing from competitors. However, so far this has been an overall look into Alphabet, Amazon, Facebook, and Apple. Now an official antitrust probe from the DOJ and multiple states appears imminent to investigate Apple’s “ironclad control of the App Store.”

Reported by Politico, three anonymous sources close to the matter have shared that the DOJ along with attorneys general from multiple states are “taking the first steps toward launching an antitrust probe of Apple.”
