    You jest, but the FTC is trying to appeal (undo) the merger in court, and this makes their case a lot stronger: https://www.reuters.com/markets/deals/us-ftc-tries-again-stop-microsofts-already-closed-deal-activision-2023-12-06/

    For a 68,000,000,000$ deal, even if this helps the FTC by 1%, that’s a huge risk

      Good. After they un-merge them they can break them up into even smaller pieces. That way in another 30 years when we forget about antitrust against they can re-assemble the monopoly. Fun for everyone!

      You took all that effort to put the zeros and commas in, but put the $ on the wrong side of the number.

      Neat.
