The Federal Trade Commission on Thursday sued to block Microsoft’s $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard, challenging one of the largest tech acquisitions in history.
It also marks the FTC’s most significant challenge to the tech industry since it sued to break up Facebook-owner Meta in 2020, underscoring US officials’ vocal promises of a tough antitrust enforcement agenda. “Today we seek to stop Microsoft from gaining control over a leading independent game studio and using it to harm competition in multiple dynamic and fast-growing gaming markets,” said Holly Vedova, director of the FTC’s Bureau of Competition, in a statement.

Really?
🆘🆘 MohsenShekari 's execution exposes the inhumanity of IR's justice system while dozens of others face the same fate. We ask all politicians urgently call on the IR to immediately halt all planned executions and stop using the death penalty to repress protesters MahsaAmini
Stop the executions, be the voice of Iran
They are just prolonging the inevitable both parties expected this to happen this is just going to take longer to finalize the deal.
Stop the monopolies already.
So who is Activision Blizzard? Do we care
Latest Twitter dumps by Musk shows america is censored more than Russia. The DNC FBI FED GIVT GOOGLE FACEBOOK AND WH ALL INVOLVED. NO media propagandists Re covering this as tgey Re involved in it. Truth on FOX OAN NEWSMAX. All other media pure bs and lies.
Microsoft doesn’t invent anything. They buy out competitors or simply steal their ideas. They haven’t innovated in a long time
For IranRevolution donotexecute MohsenShekari WomanLifeFreedom
This morning, 23 y/o Mohsen Shekari, was EXECUTED for PROTESTING, asking for his fundamental human rights. Read that again: Executed for Protesting. Do Not Stay Silent. Please ask your elected representatives to isolate this barbaric regime. MohsenShekari MahsaAmini
I figured the FTC would do this considering the size of the deal. This will probably add another year or so and a few more concessions but the deal is getting done.
Pretty much standard procedure for a deal this size. It won't prevent the acquisition, only make it take longer.
Hey FTC where is my FTX money.
While it would be great for anyone other than the current Activision Blizzard leadership to be in charge...yeah, monopolies are bad. We've been over this before Microsoft!
AliMoazemi, 20 ys. Among those arrested during the protests in Iran, next one to execute after MohsenShekhari. There is a protest mechanism in all democratic countries. Ask the Islamic Republic how people can protest so that they are not killed.
The Islamic Republic has started executing young people only for protesting! They executed MohsenShekhari a 23-year-old boy last day. Iranian people need urgent help. Sanctions are not enough. MahsaAmini
I bet you wish you could support Trump to get your ratings back up but you got what you deserve. FAILEDNETWORK
. EUCouncil condemnation of MohsenShekhari ‘s execution is not enough! The least you can do is summoning your ambassadors from Tehran. If the Islamic Republic gets away with this, the world will be witnessing a mass killing. It’s late already! MahsaAmini
The murderous regime of the IR executed one of the protesters this morning for the “crime” of blocking street. How long do you want to sit and watch the cruellest government in history killing Iranian young people? He was 23yrs! MohsenShekari محسن_شکاری
Nice
MohsenShekari is an Iranian protester who is executed today by IR regime just for protesting and shouting out freedom. Be our voice if you care for human rights. MahsaAmini IranianRevolution
O people of the world, be careful, your politicians are passive against IR crimes because of oil money, but this regime is looking for nuclear weapons, if it succeeds, no human being will be safe anywhere in the world. FIFAWorldCup MohsenShekari MahsaAmini UN CNN
Want to know what is happening in iran? Ignore nytimes and its made up story about ambolishing so-called morality police.! The reality is ,we slept last night with the news of HoomanAbdullahi’s murder and woke up today with the news of MohsenShekari's execution. Both by IRCG.
The FTC won't let me be or let me be me so let me see.....
Please as a foreigner be the voice of the Iranian people,your voice is loud.the Internet is blocked by the regime and the Islamic regime is executing thousands of youth for protesting,don't let the news of the World Cup silence the voice of the Iranian MohsenShekari 🙏🏼💚🤍❤😭
Oh bummer

Apple should have done the deal! Not problem! Hahahahaha!
AkbarGhafari was kidnapped after giving shelter to some protesters. He was kept in solidarity confinement and under pressure for days. He is illiterate but they made him sign a paper saying he killed an officer. Now his life is in danger SayTheirNames MahsaAmini
FTC finally doing its job after several big mistakes.
A second person who was sentenced to death, Ali_Moazzami, is in imminent danger of execution after the execution of Mohsen_Shekari. Be his voice MahsaAmini
What a stupid fucking mountain to die on. This sector alone has FAR bigger problems that weren’t blocked. But also, never mind any other industry you refuse to take similar action for. FTC is worthless. FailedStatesOfAmerica
Normally I wouldn’t agree, but since is Microsoft I say go for it.
Whaaaaat. That sucks. Realistically Microsoft would vastly improve these products Actvision has. They would also give rights to games made by Activision Blizzard to Playstation, Nintendo, and more.
FTC doesn’t even want to WoW to succeed smh
$MSFT bouta tank
GameLoreDash Doomscream Whoa. 😂😂
Today, one of the protesters in Iran has been executed by the Islamic Republic regime for the crime of “closing down the street”! MohsenShekari was only 23! This news should be on top of any other news! Please spread the word! We have 30000 more prisoners right now! MahsaAmini
Insiders pretending like they didn't see this coming
MohsenShekari was a 23-year-old Iranian boy who was executed this morning by the Islamic Regime of Iran. Do you know what his crime was? Intent to harm the military Intent to harm those people who kill so many of us every day Where is the justice? Be our voice! MahsaAmini
FTC will lose and Sony won't get anything now. Such waste of time and money.
