BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Microsoft is set to stave off a possible hefty antitrust fine as EU regulators are likely to accept an offer on its Office and Teams products, three people familiar with the matter said on Wednesday, amid tensions with the United States over the EU's scrutiny of Big Tech.
Microsoft found itself back in the EU antitrust crosshairs after Salesforce-owned Slack alleged in a 2020 complaint to the European Commission that Microsoft was getting an unfair advantage by bundling chat and video app Teams with its Office product.
