Even if it is not legal, it is only a fine. Everything is fine.

Kind why I don't have any faith at all in the Google anti-trust case. They'll be ordered to pay a fine of 0.5% of their annual revenue or something.

[varispeed]

They should be ordered to pay over 45% of their annual revenue.

They think charging business 30% of their revenue is completely acceptable, so a fine must be something above that number.

Any fine on revenue below 30% is just a cost of doing business.

They should be ordered to pay 45% of the company. Hand over the shares. If shareholders lose ownership, then they'll start to pay attention to how the company is run.

Wouldn't they also be ordered to change their behavior?

[mtsr]

And the penalty for non-compliance, another 0.5% fine?

So long as repercussions aren’t more serious (see EU fines) or more personal (hold C-suite personally responsible for contempt of court or similar), nothing will change.

Threatening to nationalize, restructure, and then sell the company for cheap to someone that agrees to operate it within the bounds of the law… that might have some serious teeth.

It’ll never happen though.

Defamation lawsuit could be more than a fine.

What about the message is defamatory? I think it's scummy but not illegal.

[toldyouso2022]

They make it seems like the pc is becoming unprotected if firefox is installed. This is how I interpreted the message.

Have an upvote for the pun.
