Bobby Kotick, the CEO of Activision Blizzard, has sent an open letter to his employees discussing what steps the massive game company will be taking in the wake of the ever-increasing boondoggle of legal headaches the corporation has found itself in.

Blizzard had previously said there would be a second online-only version of BlizzCon in early 2022, but now it's putting a hold on the event.

I don't think anyone who saw the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission accuse California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing of illegal ethics violations over the DFEH's opposition to the EEOC's settlement with Activsion Blizzard is surprised that Activision Blizzard is now using that accusation to try and get the DFEH case against them dismissed.

I am not a lawyer, and never have I been more simultaneously glad and upset about that than I am today, because the Activision Blizzard lawsuits boondoggle just got extremely complicated.

No corporation or corporate entity is perfect and you should never treat a company like it's a person that you know.

Activision-Blizzard is learning the truth of what my grandmother used to say -- you can take care of your problems when they're small and manageable, or you can wait and try and pretend they don't exist.

It's bad when a state government agency sues you, especially when it's a state as big and populous as California, but it's a lot worse when the United States Securities and Exchange Commission starts to investigate you.

California's Department of Fair Employment and Housing has amended its lawsuit against Activision Blizzard, claiming the company is actively interfering with the state's investigation.

It's not a secret that the issues that have come to light at Blizzard in the DFEH lawsuit are not unique to Blizzard.
