WASHINGTON - Attorneys general from 48 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico have opened an antitrust probe into big tech companies that focuses on Alphabet’s Google , Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton formally announced on Monday.
U.S. President Donald Trump has called for closer scrutiny of social media firms and Google, accusing them of suppressing conservative voices online without presenting any evidence. Google said in a statement on Friday that it had not yet been contacted by state antitrust enforcers but would work constructively with them.
