Microsoft wins FTC fight to buy Activision Blizzard

From the article, quoting Judge Corley:

… the Court finds the FTC has not shown a likelihood it will prevail on its claim this particular vertical merger in this specific industry may substantially lessen competition. To the contrary, the record evidence points to more consumer access to Call of Duty and other Activision content. The motion for a preliminary injunction is therefore DENIED.

    It’s likely it would if been marketed as one, just like I’m sure it’ll have Microsoft plastered all over it when the time comes.

    The lesson here is all large corporations can’t be trusted.
