The US Department of Justice has begun a probe into possible anti-trust violations by US tech giants.

In an announcement on Tuesday afternoon, prosecutors said they had kicked off an investigation with the aim of "reviewing whether and how market-leading online platforms have achieved market power and are engaging in practices that have reduced competition, stifled innovation, or otherwise harmed consumers."
