   Microsoft has won its court battle with the FTC over its acquisition of Activision-Blizzard, which is rather like a cat winning a fight with a crow over who gets to eat the rear end of a dead mouse.
   
   
   The FTC was seeking an injunction, which has been denied. That means the acquisition can go ahead, and any further action by the FTC would be up against a fait accompli.
   
   The FTC has appealed the ruling on the basis of nothing. They have filed a notice of appeal but not given grounds. Presumably there will be a reason given at some point, but they need to think of it first.

     @Aether Until somewhere around 2016 Blizzard had literally a perfect run. Such a shame.
