Facebook\u2019s Mark Zuckerberg, Amazon\u2019s Jeff Bezos, Google\u2019s Sundar Pichai and Apple\u2019s Tim Cook \u2014 will answer for their companies\u2019 practices before Congress at a hearing Wednesday by the House Judiciary subcommittee on antitrust.<\/p>\n

The panel has conducted a bipartisan investigation over the past year of the tech giants\u2019 market dominance and their effect on consumers.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the first such congressional review of the tech industry. It has aimed to determine whether existing competition policies and century-old antitrust laws are adequate or if new legislation and more funding for enforcement are needed.<\/p>\n

The four CEOs are expected to testify remotely.<\/p>\n

The hearing originally was set for Monday. It was rescheduled to allow lawmakers who are committee members to participate in commemorations at the US Capitol on Monday and Tuesday for Rep. John Lewis, the civil rights icon and longtime Georgia congressman who died July 17.<\/p>\n
