Can’t come soon enough, and I hope he’s not the last.
I know there’s still some who are angry about the deal because “muh free market,” but it’s really hard to get upset about Microsoft coming in and sacking all of ActiBlizz executives. It desperately needs a leadership purge, and Microsoft was one of the only companies that was poised to do it.
Isn’t it literally free market to have the owner of the place do whatever they want?
I didn’t mean that in regards to the sacking, more the controversy surrounding the merger in the first place. A lot of competitors have whined that the merger reduces competition, and that the government should have blocked the deal for the sake of the market.
