This poor socialist soul probably typing on his 1.500 dollars iphone and discussing things on a niche luxury hobby forum .. his socialist life must be really really difficult

So, I mean... these recent developments such as the email and these FTC statements?
I would assume the email could potentially be devastating to their case, but I don't know how that'd hold up in court?

I'll say this in the most A-Politcal way possible. In the US, the regulators don't seem as strong when it comes to big tech and their lobbying efforts.
But over here in the UK

I think in this case it is not the whistleblower(informant?) that will be called deepthroat...
Fuck I feel old using that reference.

Assuming the email content is what it is rumored to be, then it would absolutely be admissible in court if MS intentions for the deal are in any way relevant to the case. But the email itself would be just one piece of evidence to consider with all other evidence. It would certainly have significant weight (if not obviously sent in jest) because of the high level of the person sending it though.

Because Microsoft has been saying the opposite to governments for months. To see all that unraveled by Matt Booty surprised the hell out of me.

I think we've all learned by now not to trust what any of these idiotic companies say ... well except for maybe Nintendo - mainly because they never say ANYTHING...

Here's another one of mine, today's reminder the jihad continues even in 2023, Matt "I'm not good with computers" Booty confirmed it by email to his CFO

Tom Warren ensuring his name has absolutely no credibility (if that was in doubt). Microsoft haven’t denied the legitimacy of this email.

Are you for real man? If you’re struggling to link those 2 quotes I’m not sure what to tell you, maybe try reading back through the chains to where you said:
That’s some huge deal but Microsoft saying they want to destroy Sony is completely fine.
I’m glad for you mate

Haven't Ms said that this was an internal document that the court shoudln't have had ?Which confirms its authenticity.

The sad thing is that if the lawsuit were against Sony, he would be telling the story so differently and enjoying the ridiculousness of a group of gamers banding together for this.
But of course, he has to belittle them and act bitter.

Or is it just one of Phil's balls in my throat?

well of course, every community needs impartial unbiased posters like myself
He's not wrong tho

Beating the competition is not the surprise, I'm surprised at the ferver around a redacted email and only taking the word of the gamers lawsuit lawyer.

No, he's just missing the entire point.

No incentive to foreclose CoD on PlayStation
They want to foreclose PlayStation entirely so the industry can grow

Yeah but you would think they might have a semblance of integrity or at least try to hide their bias…

This is not what you think it is. It's still relevant for laying the groundwork of said acquisitions.
Release it MS. What are you afraid of?

2019 huh?
What was it that happened in 2019 specifically related to Microsoft/Xbox and Activision again?
Oh yeh, that's right:
Mike Ybarra joins Blizzard after years as Xbox services boss
Mike Ybarra is joining Blizzard Entertainment as general manager and executive vice president. He brings years of experience running Xbox services.

I've said it before, I'll say it again. None of this is a coincidence.
