  The FTC wants to prove Meta has a monopoly over personal social networking, so it wouldn't view video app TikTok as a competitor.


The article from TechRepublic discusses the Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) lawsuit against Meta, formerly known as Facebook, alleging that the company has engaged in monopolistic practices.
