Industry groups aren’t giving up hope for government intervention.
Government intervention would only happen if VMware was deemed critical to national security. Capitalism is gonna capitalism, otherwise. Broadcom is interested in retaining a smaller set of higher-dollar enterprise customers to manage, not the whole ecosystem of VMware customers of smaller sized deployments.

We’ve heard about some companies being charged 67x their previous years prices to renew. How is that not an unwarranted complaint?
We’re looking at a 3 to 4x increase in price, and while that’s not horrible, that’s still a lot. We’re looking at alternatives, because at the end of the day, those prices are too high. And they’re not the only ones raising prices by exorbitant amounts.
