1.13 billion in revenue says they will be ok
Crazy, the things people buy from youtubers and podcasters. It's like people want to be scammed
the culture of consoomtion, it is fucking disgusting.
while i aint gonna pretend that precarious economic conditions are direct result of over consumption, it surely does not fucking help.
stop fucking buying shite you don't need and spending money you don't have because some fucking twat said you need it.
before anything changes for the better, every one will need to fix themselves.
$ 9.75 per person???
Before legal fees and taxes of course.
At least it's not a class action lawsuit, where lawyers would take 50-70% of the settlement first.
Does this mean they will stop doing it after?
No, it means they will double down on it, since the fine is so small that it is irrelevant.
Can't unsee the face in the FTC logo.
