**San Francisco, CA** – Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg concluded his testimony in a high-profile antitrust case on Wednesday, vehemently denying accusations that the company acquired Instagram and WhatsApp to stifle competition. Zuckerberg’s testimony marked a key moment in the ongoing legal battle, which alleges Meta engaged in anti-competitive practices through its acquisitions of rival social media platforms. The specifics of the allegations remain under review, but the case hinges on whether Meta’s acquisitions were intended to eliminate potential threats to its market dominance, rather than being driven by legitimate business reasons. The outcome of the case could have significant implications for the future of tech mergers and acquisitions.
