Will Facebook need to unfriend Instagram and WhatsApp?

from This Matters · host Toronto Star

Facebook is facing an antitrust lawsuit brought forth by the Federal Trade Commission and 48 U.S. Attorney Generals accusing it of monopolistic behaviour. This may lead to unwinding its acquisitions of Instagram and WhatsApp, two other popular social networks. John Biggs, editor-of-chief of Gizmodo, joins "This Matters" to discuss whether or not this could be the beginning of regulation and consequences for big tech companies.
