Damn what a painful website, here's something readable: https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/boards-policy-regulation/google-hit-with-314-million-us-verdict-cellular-data-class-action-2025-07-01/
- The fact that Reuters is less painful that gsmarena should speak volumes on how bad gsmarena is lol
Are they gonna stop the theft?! to ask is to answer
The only practical way to stop these crimes against your person is to take control of your devices by installing your own choice of software that you control.
The government, current clown admin or otherwise, aint never gonna protect the peasants from corporate abuse. They are colluding against the working class. That much is clear.
$314.6 million fine is a whopping 0.35% of Google's 2025 Q1 earnings. Barely a tisk tisk.
- That's like paying $30 for normal people.
  Or less, as I considered a Q1 with a monthly salary of $3000. If your salary is lower than that—like mine is—then the fine would be worth less than $30.
  Google must be like "you sure that's enough for you? I mean, we made BILLIONS with that data we stole afterall lol"
  
  And they're contesting it! Little shite wankers.
a 100 million π? cool!
- No, pi hundred million dollars.
