MODERATORS
These 10 year agreements are such bullshit. So Microsoft just has to wait 10 years to then perform monopolostic actions using their aquisition of Activision instead of doing them now? I don't think Microsoft cares that much, so they're willing to make these deals to appease the regulators.
It's so disgusting. Why is nobody calling out these stupid deals? I mean if we could really trust Microsoft with one of the biggest VG publishers in the world they wouldn't need to write contracts basically saying "we'ww be good, we pwomise!!!"
My guess is desensitization. Every company is buying each other, and antitrust enforcement hasn't been a thing since FDR.
Neoliberal economics at its finest. Thanks, Reagan.
