yawn. $0.01 fine for Amazon. Cool
$25 million dollars. That's just pocket change for Amazon.
Wow a whole 25 million? I am sure that will teach them!!! /s
Another reason not to have that shit in your house.
Fines like this should be calculated based on % of corporations net assets. Something like this, say 5-10%. That would at least get their attention.
Same with personal fines honestly, percentage of income or total wealth, depending on the crime.
That fine for them is like a trip to McDonald's for me in terms of worth.
I think. Math might be off. But like 25 bucks assuming Amazon is worth $1T
Damn look at you, Mr. Fancy Pants, earning buckets of cash!
If you were actually dumb enough to put one of these listening devices in your home owned by the most powerful & greedy company on the planet you deserve to have your privacy invaded. People are fucking stupid.
