Hassling them when they are expanding their psedo monopoly seems like a good place to start

Lol they aren’t even remotely close to a monopoly in the gaming market, even if this all goes through. This is the first console generation they haven’t gotten their asses beat by Sony hands down, and it’s only because they’re selling a last Gen console under the current Gen. And that’s ignoring that Nintendo just sorta exists and does their own thing in their own universe. And like, all of pc gaming exists too.

2.5 trillion dollar company that has it’s fingers in every portion of gaming and just bought another billion dollar gaming business is not “even remotely close to a monopoly”. The same company that tried is very best to kill opengl adoption, because that wasn’t a monopolistic move like the many many other moves that were similar to this. Lest we forget EEE and United States v. Microsoft Corp.
