When will punishment stop being attached to a hard number and be a percentage of the company’s worth. Shits maddening.
While I’d love a percentage based fee, this is a damages suit, so it should be actual damages these people are owed, as determined by the court. A percentage just doesn’t make sense here unless punitive damages were also on the table.
In principle I agree, though, breaking the law should not be an affordable “cost of doing business”.
These companies shift gains and losses around so much that they would evade any punishment
“As you can see your honor, we actually lost 400 million last year. Negative profit. It looks like you actually owe us money when you calculate the proposed fine…”

LMFAO that was easily the funniest exchange I’ve seen on lemmy
The lawsuit comes at a time when Google’s core advertising business is facing an existential threat from the shift to generative AI chat, Luria added.
Is this BS or I dont understand something? In what way generative AI is currently an existential threat to online advertising?
Oh no, our ads didn’t work as well as we wanted them to!
Anyway…
