  What? This is a press release from the California Attorney General literally taking about what they are doing in court right now.

  How do you go from that to “thEy’Re DoiNg NothIng”?

    So it’ll stop happening after this court case? Right? Oh wait those are the crickets of reality.

  The linked article is from California’s office of the attorney general related to an existing lawsuit. As a non-Californian, I am supremely disappointed that this is happening just at the state level, but credit should still go where its due. And if their legal action sets a precedent that makes it easier for other states (or dare I hope, at the federal level if and when we get strong antitrust regulators like we had under Biden), then all the better.
