Sounds like old times. A bit rich of Microsoft to be complaining about stitching up markets though given its history. But, hey, hypocrisy is the order of the day in everything.

Xbox tried to launch here for the 1st 3 consoles. Nobody bought them.
the US automotive industry made the same claim here that Japan is anticompetitive, but somehow the German manufacturers sell like hotcakes in Japan. Strange.

Modern US business strategy is now to run to Congress so politicians can gaslight the public with enraged speeches to get re-elected on these important issues.
