As Facebook Inc (FB) fights off a monopoly lawsuit charged by the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC), another predicament hits the company as photo app Phhhoto has filed an antitrust lawsuit against the tech giant claiming that it has cloned their app and ruined their business.

The makers of the app, Champ Bennett, Omar Elsayed, and Russell Armand, founded the app back in 2014 and Mark Zuckerberg was one of its first users.
