EU regulators...wake up!

I also see this as an antitrust case, but to see that, you need to be much more up to date on technology than anyone who decides such things.

It's comparable to the biggest bank buying the biggest ratings agency.

Let's file an antitrust complain.

Not just on this HF acquisition, but on the whole ecosystem monopoly.

They absolutely should, but what would be their impact on American companies buying each other out?

If they want to operate in the EU, quite a lot. See cases against Microsoft, Apple for example.

OK, can you provide specific cases/articles about it? I'm curious what can EU do with a merger of companies that are not legal identities within EU.

It's different for their local counterparts, but the original companies?

Microsoft/Activision Blizzard was tough for Microsoft in the EU despite them both being US companies, because they affected European consumers.

That's a great news for a few rich wallets and bad for all of us.
