You should be thankful at all this is happening. On the other side of the ocean bundling office and teams is still perfectly legal.

I wonder why nobody at the US antitrust office has said anything at all.

So is bundling office and PowerPoint which killed a massive number of presentation apps before they were even born. How is this particularly different? Should bundling any apps/sofware/services together be illegal? Should that only apply to specific companies?

Yes, it's an abuse of dominant position in the market.

> Should that only apply to specific companies?

It should apply to any market segment where one vendor can abuse its position.

The US is too invested (literally) in Big Tech right now, as it gives them a geopolitical advantage. That's why they have not broken up anything for real lately. But this feed-the-giant policy is already, though slowly, starting to crack. Look at how Congress is caught by the balls by Microsoft (“The US government’s dependence on Microsoft poses a serious threat to US national security,” says US senator Ron Wyden. [1]), and yet they cannot do anything about it because they have no alternative; a self-inflicted wound from decades of inaction.

Like the other comment here, it's ironic that it is the EU pulling from the market/capitalism playbook now.
