FTC can't do anything at this point.

  • Their internal court will take months to decide and has no power, it's only a recommendation.
  • The appeal will fail, it's incredibly hard to get 3 judges to side against 1 judge on the basis of that 1 judge applied the law wrong, especially after those 3 judges just slapped down FTC's motion for stay so easily and they need it to be a 2/3 decision.
  • They could appeal to the supreme court which would be fucking hilarious.

I can't remember the exact dates but I'm pretty sure CMA will issue their decision way before FTC gets another chance at Microsoft.

Thats good, I just hope the cma or this judge doesn't try some last minute wild card bs this coming week 

I am on the opposite part of the spectrum and I am hoping we get a few curve balls that extend this whole thing for another 6 months. I am hoping the CMA pull a fast ball on MS and act like they are going to approve only to get their delay and still deny the whole thing.  Now talk about net rage, it would be glorious.
