minus-squarehypnicjerk@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·1 hour agowhat a terrible article. A single $2 million settlement, reached with one teen, is a fraction of the $18 billion 1/10000 is certainly a fraction but that’s misleading use of language at best. absolutely no mentions of how these payouts and potential liabilities compare to their profits over the relevant timeframes. it constantly ends paragraphs with a leading thought and then drops it by the start of the next one. just corposlop shit.
Actual article by Bloomberg.
