OK, now give them a fine that will actually hurt.
And jail the people responsible. And not just some middle-management corporate patsy. Investigate that shit starting at the top of the flagpole.
Where do you think you are? The E.U.?
Lol at this guy thinking his rights matter
Come on now, that’s going to completely wipe out the loose change from their couches.
Republicans of course voted against any fines at all:
Now with a 3-2 democratic majority on fcc a lot is getting done. One of Biden's nominees was stonewalled by the senate for years (ISPs launched a huge smear campaign against her, even the daily mail of all things went after her). Biden had to relent and finally nominated someone else who got approved late 2023, finally breaking the 2-2 deadlock that Republicans were using to block everything like this including net neutrality.
Yeah this is a blip on the balance sheet, nothing more
That fine is a zero short, should see a reimbursement to each affected customer on the scale of 10k/person.
The government just tryna get it's money back from buying the data from them first.
lol this is the first thought that crossed my mind
Great job FCC. You did nothing. Congratulations. They are just going to do it again.
Nueters
