I think they're still there, just haven't been trotted out in recent history. And mergers keep getting approved.

The last merger that got blocked was almost 50 years ago, I believe. So yeah...it's probably dead.

Which was that? Also, DraftKings and FanDuel got rejected about 10 years ago

I want to say it was in the telecoms industry. But I completely forgot about that merger you mentioned. Thanks for reminding me.

Didn't they just block the Nvidia ARM merger a few years back?

I thought that was the UK's Competition Markets Authority that blocked the ARM deal.
