Activision doesn't own Blizzard. They are a joint company. However, Activision is smart enough to leave Blizzard alone. If they really just bought up Blizzard, then we would see a WoW expansion, a new StarCraft and a new Diablo every single year.

The only reason they merged anyway was because Activision was hemoragging money because of Guitar Hero being an overpriced piece of shit.

I knew they merged but I assumed Activision was the one that owned them.  I knew they were leaving Blizzard alone considering that is the best option.  However, I just assumed Activision owned Blizzard outright even though I should have known they just merged.  Is the situation such as Blizzard produces the games and Activision plubishes them?  Seems like a sticky situation for me.  I want to outright boycott them but it is hard to give up on Blizzard games.  I'm in a catch 22.

Blizzard publishes it's own games as well. StarCraft II was fully developed and published by Blizzard and you can bet that it will be the same with Diablo III and Heart of the Swarm. My SCII box doesn't even have the word Activision anywhere on it.
