"new research" here translates roughly to "information known for over half a century".

[โ€“] propaganja 6 points 1 year ago

"Information known for half a century that nevertheless didn't mean jack squat because it couldn't be legally explained in such a way that would convince a layman court to break past precedent; but that we've now reframed into a compelling interpretation that much more obviously meets the standards required for a court to rule something as 'predatory pricing''; thus, any future cases brought are much more likely to succeed."

tldr: We think we've found a way around the technicality VCs have been hiding behind all these years.
