Drive By: Intel hit by lawsuit from FTC
Author: Dave Lewis
From The Globe and Mail:
The FTC said Intel, which makes the microprocessors that run personal computers, has shut rivals out of the marketplace. In the process, the FTC says Intel has deprived consumers of choice and stifled innovation in the chip industry.
In a statement, the agency said it is asking for an order that would bar Intel from using “threats, bundled prices, or other offers to encourage exclusive deals, hamper competition, or unfairly manipulate the prices of its” chips.
