No one from the companies could be reached for comment right away.

A crackdown on monopolistic behavior began in China’s tech sector in late 2020, and the country’s digital giants have been one of the primary targets.

The maximum fine for each violation of the anti-monopoly statute is 500,000 yuan (US$74,688).
