Today Virgin Mobile USA announced that it has closed on the acquisition of MVNO Helio, which was first announced in June. The acquisition gives Virgin Mobile the ability to offer its customers post-paid service and an expanded range of data applications. In order to close the deal, Helio shuttered all of its retail stores with the exception of a location in New York City. Virgin Mobile also renegotiated with Helio carrier partner Sprint to reduce its cost per minute. Helio's previous owners, SK Telecom and EarthLink, will receive shares in Virgin Mobile as part of the deal, and SK Telecom will contribute two members to the board of directors at Virgin Mobile.

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.
There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.
Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
