Look, I’m a trial judge. I am not anyone that understands the industry and the markets in the way that you do. And so I take seriously when companies are telling me that if this gets disclosed, it’s going to cause competitive harm.
Not sure what a trial judge is but he sounds way in over his head.
Competitive harm in a fucking antitrust proceeding, lol, lmao even
