Well yes but I feel like its because the threats of monopolization got less and less due to lobbying efforts but for the time, there are reports where microsoft was scared in the internal emails after what happened.

"Microsoft was more scared of taking over companies that were competitors because of this anti trust trial. They had to back off a little and this created this tiny little gap, this little window from which many flowers can bloom. These flowers ended up growing into massive trillion dollars competitors (google and apple)"

Per Atrioc (https://youtu.be/VS6p5kPeD9I?si=PUT4R5a7Y4kiIvD2&t=692) [Title of the video being the Halo scheme is insane talking about groq's weird acquisition by nvidia]

I would consider that much of what I wrote in the previous comment was I think something I had thought about but this particular video definitely helped me and you could say did influence me in a way to write the comment.

It also mentions how it was provable that Microsoft was scared about it. I am not sure about this contradiction though but I would consider that it atleast created a gap for around 10-18 years from which the tech giants emerged.
