The deal has to be approved by the US, UK and Europe for it to work.
It's like a jury or trial/investigation so to speak.
If it's not unanimously decided the deal is off.
Just because it's 2 American companies. Their products and services are consumed globally.
It's like a fair trade kinda scenario.
Unlawful monopoly of the market.
It's the biggest gaming merge ever.
To be honest I'm not the one deciding.
I couldn't give 2 shits if it's a yay or nay.
It's a huge deal and the future could be murky for many others if it goes ahead.
Maybe in Europe and America you can throw wads of cash about to make things happen.
The UK has concerns it said no.
Note that Europe and US haven't put their conclusion forward.
UK goes first and then will be made to look like backward thinking neanderthals.
Not seeking any "progression" in technology.
Plus who is this deal good for?
The 2 companies in question. Not the average Joe or consumer.
Just 2 big companies getting fatter and richer.
The future is uncertain on their intentions after the merger went ahead.
Who knows what they have planned for the next 5 years or beyond?
