<\/p>\n

\tThe European Commission (EC) again postponed the deadline for completing an investigation of Google\u2019s proposed $2.1 billion acquisition of Fitbit, targeting a decision in early 2021.<\/p>\n

An update to the EC\u2019s case file set 8 January as the new date for issuing its decision, its second rescheduling [1] of a decision originally due on 9 December.<\/p>\n

Reuters noted extensions are often granted at the request of the companies being investigated.<\/p>\n

Google announced the deal in November 2019, but struggled to win over critics concerned about issues related to data use and competition in the wearables market.<\/p>\n

Financial Times last month tipped the EC to approve the deal [2] after Google promised not to use data gleaned from Fitbit devices for targeted advertising for ten years, and grant rivals access to its services and data with user consent.<\/p>\n
