Topic	Microsoft to acquire Activison Blizzard
squexa 01/21/22 12:13:47 AM #139:	Yeah, Activision doesn't have many possible buyers. The FTC is literally dragging Meta to court right now to unwind its Instagram and WhatsApp acquisitions, so no way would Meta be making any new acquisitions this big now. Amazon's also been singled out by the FTC. In fact, Microsoft's the big tech company that's been least scrutinized by the FTC, which gives them the unique advantage in making this deal, but they'll also want to keep staying on the FTC's good side. --- congrats to azuarc, our GotD2 guru! <cite>squexa posted [p:961935787] in Microsoft ...
