Microsoft Faces Legal Challenge in the UK Over Cloud Licensing Practices

Reported about 21 hours ago

Microsoft is being sued in the UK for allegedly implementing higher licensing fees for Windows Server software, penalizing businesses that use cloud services from competitors like Amazon, Google, and Alibaba. The lawsuit claims British businesses could be owed over £1 billion in compensation, asserting that Microsoft's practices restrict competition and incentivize businesses to switch to its Azure cloud platform. Meanwhile, the UK's competition regulator is also investigating Microsoft's licensing strategies amid ongoing antitrust scrutiny from the US Federal Trade Commission.
