Here's hoping these companies have to pony up billions not millions

Fuck that.

They've betrayed humanity and are a threat to all life on this planet.

At the least they need to be turned into public utilities (owned by the State).

They should, in my opinion, also be held criminally accountable. Every person involved.

I am pessimistic about how this goes. They will either win or get away with minor consequences. And in the end we will all die.

Good luck squeezing a rounding error from any of these companies.
