I wonder how much they spent on lawyers and legal fees fighting it
Just more peanuts. It's all part of the risk calculations.
They must have an army of squirrels working there
That's just cost of doing business.
That's a hair over 0.5% of Apple's net earnings 2022. They would literally need to hit with this kind of penalty 200 times a year to actually feel it.
This won't change a goddamn thing.
$60/per person involved.
The only people who win are the lawyers. Apple doesn't make out too badly either.
