Amazon.com Inc. and Microsoft Corp.’s cloud services could face a full-blown antitrust probe in the UK after the country’s digital regulator said the firms may be abusing their market power to thwart fair competition.
Ofcom said Wednesday it had found evidence of practices that make it more difficult for people to switch and use multiple cloud suppliers, as part of its yearlong study into the cloud market. It said it was “particularly concerned” about the US tech firms because of their market position.
