As the Justice Department and and Alphabet Inc.’s Google trade legal haymakers in federal court this month, at least one more heavyweight antitrust clash between the federal regulators and a tech titan is on the near horizon.
Indeed, antitrust season could be in full bloom this fall and next year. Despite a series of high-profile congressional hearings, federal lawmakers have not passed meaningful tech legislation in the four years since the Trump administration announced a crackdown on Big Tech.

MSFT, -0.44%, the agency expressed its concerns about the outsize influence of a handful of tech companies on digital marketplaces. In both cases, the FTC was unsuccessful in blocking the deals.
