On Thursday, Meta formally asked the court to dismiss the FTC lawsuit.

A Meta spokesman said on the same day that the FTC had no basis for Meta's lawsuit. The plaintiff recently amended the complaint, but the new accusation also had no legal and factual basis and relied entirely on subjective speculation about the future of the fictional real market.

The FTC amended its complaint this month, tweaking the charges slightly, but leaving the broader charges unchanged. As one of the two major antitrust enforcement agencies of the US federal government, the FTC lawsuit focuses on the market for fitness software for virtual reality devices and Supernatural, a fitness software owned by Within (currently only available for Meta's virtual reality devices).

The FTC alleges that Meta's acquisition of Within would severely weaken competition and create an exclusive monopoly in the virtual reality fitness software market.
