cost of doing business. I wish I was fined the equivalent of £12 for any possible crime.
pathetic. usa is a pathetic hellhole.
settling means meta doesnt get dragged through couet and discovery.
do your god damn job prosecutors
maybe the prosecutors decided that meta has more money and better lawyers than the actual fucking state AGs… maybe this was the best deal they could possibly get…
maybe the issue isn’t the legal system, it’s the fact that these companies have become more powerful than the country itself…
are you suggesting the might and wealth of the US government cannot tackle a corporation?
If we havent reached that point, we’re sure headed there…
Brought to you by carl’s jr.
corporations are not people and should not be allowed to settle
Especially not for serious fucking things like this. A bit of money that gets lost in the system and not even admission of guilt is supposed to be justice?
So basically no consequences for Zuck abusing a generation of children for profit?
Zuck and Meta Investors.
The fact that school pension systems, among others, are passively supporting this by refusing to divest is probably a bigger slap in society’s face than a single creep like Zuck abusing children for profit.
I disagree, divestment in profitable companies just rewards immoral investors. Plus Zuck has full voting control over Meta so shareholder’s votes mean nothing. I just want Zuck to be held accountable under the existing laws.
So you’re saying that you don’t want to miss out on any money that can be made from exploiting children?
Zuck may be at the top, but all of Meta violated the law, I assume as an investor you support this “cost of doing business” slap on the wrist because… Profits over everything, amirite?
My argument is that regulation should be designed to prevent immoral behaviour. Otherwise you’re fundamentally taxing morality.
And again a small tax over the insane profits they reaped on all this
They knew what they were doing, they knew the harm, why aren’t the c suite in jail by now?
