Did Microsoft violate the sherman anti trust act?

Answer 1

Microsoft faced antitrust scrutiny in the late 1990s and early 2000s for its monopolistic practices, particularly regarding its Windows operating system and internet Explorer web browser. The U.S. Department of Justice argued that Microsoft engaged in anti-competitive behavior, which led to a landmark case. In 2000, a court found that Microsoft had indeed violated the Sherman Antitrust Act by maintaining its monopoly power through unfair practices. The case ultimately resulted in significant regulatory changes and oversight for the company.
