FOLLOW US ON:
Google recently completed its acquisition of wearables company FitBit yesterday. The acquisition comes amid investigations against the deal in Australia and the US over concerns of Google making a monopoly in the Android wearables space. Google had earlier won an EU antitrust approval for its Fitbit bid after agreeing to restrictions on how it will use customers’ health-related data. Right after Google completed its $2.1 billion acquisition of FitBit, the wearable company s CEO James Park has sent out an open letter saying that their data will be protected by Google.
