I.T Risers

Britain's competition watchdog said it would investigate whether Apple and Google's dominance of mobile phone operating systems, app stores, and web browsers hurt consumers, launching its latest probe into the tech giants.
The Competition and Markets Authority said it would undertake a "market study" into the matter to see whether the pair's effective duopoly was stifling competition and ripping off consumers, or hurting businesses like app developers.
Britain is setting up a dedicated unit within the CMA to keep the tech giants in check and encourage digital competition but said it needed to start work probing iPhone maker Apple and the Google-powered Android system as soon as possible.
