"This $391.5 million settlement is a historic win for consumers in an era of increasing reliance on technology..." Connecticut Attorney General William Tong said in a statement.
Sigh. It really, really isn't for so many reasons:
-
States get the money instead of consumers unless the state redistributes it.
-
The amount is a drop in the bucket for Alphabet.
-
Only certain states even filed.
