Microsoft Antitrust Case: Judge Allows Key Claim Against Tech Giant
A California federal judge has made a significant ruling in an antitrust case against Microsoft. ChatGPT users who filed a lawsuit against the tech giant claimed that Microsoft's actions forced OpenAI to use only its cloud computing services, undermining the AI company.
The court rejected some of the plaintiffs' claims but refused to force arbitration for allegations that Microsoft harmed competition by limiting OpenAI's choices.
The ruling was made on September 28, 2026. While some claims were dismissed, the case remains ongoing.
