Facebook fighting lawsuit by Power.com

Facebook says it will fight a lawsuit filed against it by Power.com. The lawsuit, filed in response to Facebook’s lawsuit against it last year, is an attempt to compel the social networking giant to drop the charges and restore access to Power.com users.

“Today’s lawsuit seeks to put a stop to Facebook’s attempts — in violation of California’s unfair competition laws and federal antitrust laws — to block Power.com from helping users access their own data,” Power.com said in a statement.

Facebook has tried to work with Power.com and has requested that they install Facebook Connect, the company’s application that allows users to log into third party websites using their Facebook account. Power.com did say they would look at the app but there has been no word back from them yet.
