#52 #57 Ahora resulta que por juntarse ya no pueden despedir a nadie nunca más o qué cojones? XD
Y obviamente los abogados de MS no son idiotas:
Update (Feb. 8): Microsoft responded to the FTC’s filing with its own letter to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in San Francisco, denying that its layoffs proved it went back on its word in court. Microsoft lawyer Rakesh Kilaru wrote that Microsoft was already considering layoffs before the merger.
“The recent announcement thus cannot be attributed fully to the merger,” Kilaru wrote. “More important, Microsoft continues fully to stand behind its representations to this Court. To be clear, while some overlap was identified and some jobs were eliminated, [...] Microsoft has structured and is operating the post-merger company in a way that will readily enable it to divest any or all of the Activision businesses as robust market participants in the unlikely event that a divestiture ultimately is ordered. This is precisely what Microsoft represented previously.”
A Microsoft spokesperson also provided Polygon with the following statement:
In continuing its opposition to the deal, the FTC ignores the reality that the deal itself has substantially changed. Since the FTC lost in court last July, Microsoft was required by the UK competition authority to restructure the acquisition globally and therefore did not acquire the cloud streaming rights to Activision Blizzard games in the United States. Additionally, Sony and Microsoft signed a binding agreement to keep Call of Duty on PlayStation on even better terms than Sony had before.
Los inútiles de la FTC pueden patalear lo que quieran.
