I think the purchase of SGC will go completely under the radar of the FCC because "For 2024, the size-of-transaction threshold for reporting proposed mergers and acquisitions under Section 7A of the Clayton Act will adjust from $111.4 million to $119.5 million". I believe the purchase of SGC was/will be slightly less than $119.5

Even if it was above the $119.5 threshold should the FCC apply resources/scrutiny to this completely non-essential service?

You mean the FTC, not the FCC, but yes it's under reportable thresholds.

I mean the Federal Collectables Commission (Ba Dum Tiss, slaps self congratulatory five)
