Microsoft Offers to Address EU Antitrust Concerns Over Office-Teams

Microsoft Offers to Address EU Antitrust Concerns Over Office-Teams

Microsoft, the company that makes Windows and Office, is being investigated by the European Union (EU) because they bundle their Teams communication software with their Office software.

The EU is worried this might not be fair to other companies.

To solve this, Microsoft offered to sell Office without Teams at a lower price and make it easier for other companies' software to work with theirs.

The EU is now asking other companies and customers what they think about this offer.

If the EU agrees, Microsoft might avoid a big fine.

Microsoft says the offer will give Europeans more choices.
