We didn’t start the hire: The Tipline for 8 January 2021

It may feel as though the world is always burning nowadays, but pat yourself on the back for almost making it through the first week of 2021. Celebrate with GCR USA as we dig into the Department of Justice’s highly anticipated criminal no-poach case. Also in Tipline, a patent aggregator beats antitrust claims lodged by Apple and Intel, and the Seattle Seahawks are cleared of allegations that they monopolised the number 12.
