    Google Maps is reportedly facing an antitrust probe.

    After targeting the search giant’s grasp on the digital ads market in January, the Department of Justice could hit Google with yet another antitrust lawsuit — this time, centered around the company’s control of digital maps and location data, according to a report from Politico.

    The DOJ still hasn’t decided on whether it’s going to file a lawsuit, Politico notes, but could file it sometime this year if it decides to go through with it.

    The EU Commission is instructing employees to delete TikTok from the devices they use to access the agency’s apps and emails over concerns about cybersecurity, according to a report from The Guardian.

    Several US states have already introduced bans on the app on government phones, while the House of Representatives banned TikTok from staff members’ mobile devices last December.
