MS cannot possibly do this, it would mean giving up any business with NATO. It’s insane to me that a game studio acquisition gets such emotionally charged responses.
- runako 3y ago> MS cannot possibly do this They obviously can. They don't operate in every country in the world, and there is nothing forcing them to operate in the UK. It would be irresponsible not to consider a move like this weighed against the relatively small contribution the UK makes to their global revenue. > giving up any business with NATO I am suggesting that they have to be weighing temporary loss of the entire UK market; losing direct purchases by NATO would presumably be smaller than the entire UK market. This isn't emotional at all. I am just suggesting that it has to be something they are considering as an option for completing the merger that their executives believe is important. Relatively speaking: they are willing to spend 14 years of their UK sales to buy Activision, so presumably they think it's important.
