He was “forced” to buy because he, uh, signed a contract saying he would. I’m sorry, but “voluntarily signed a purchase agreement” is only “forcing” if you believe people above a certain wealth level can do whatever the fuck they want with impunity.
He could have backed out and paid the fine he agreed to pay in the case he backed out, but he didn’t want to do that, either.
having just gone through a procurement cycle for a $30k/year purchase at work can’t imagine how much work multi-billion dollar purchases must be (if you take them seriously).
Depending on the situation you could possibly be sued for considering other competitors late in the cycle, let alone after signing and then trying not to pay.

He’s not being investigated by someone else.
He can’t win because he’s a fucking idiot.
