      It isn’t, but don’t fret… there will be a huge lawsuit, they’ll settle for a few hundred million, which will roughly be less than 2% of what the company made. The lawyers suing will get their >75% cut and we all will get our .67¢ checks. /sarcasm

      Capitalism sucks a huge bag of dicks.

        I know this is generally the case with lawyers getting all the settlement money, but I think due to people not signing up I actually recently got a $200 cheque from the Yahoo data breach settlement in the mail lol

      Legal =/= lawful. It’s possible to get away with things that are unlwaful, because they require civil lawsuits to prove and resolve, while things that are illegal are criminally charged automatically (at least in theory).
