US companies have been stealing our information and no one bats an eye. It’s why tiktok gets away with it too
Maybe we should stop "trusting these companies to do what they say they are going to with our data"…
Payed to who?
Collecting kids. Nothing like future prophet. No ones safe when business runs everything
They need more money 30 million ain’t enough
GOOD maybe they will mind there business next time
Wow , a whole 20m?! .3% of their revenue , that will learn them
That amount is nothing to them.
Are they ever going to pay me back the money they keep stealing from me? I have to use rocket money to cancel my prime subscription every month or they’ll just steal the money from my account. Idk what to do. Who knows how much they stole from me before rocket money started warning me about it
Please bow your head and say this prayer now 🙏
"Carry our prayers up to Gods throne, that
the mercy of the Lord may quickly come
and lay hold of the beast,
the serpent of old, Satan
and his demons, casting him
in chains into the abyss, so that
he can no longer seduce the nations.
Thank you for everything
CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE,
LORD GOD. Amen."
If you can't look and remember the words, just read and pray them while you have your head bowed and your hands in front of your face 🙏☺🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Everything and everyone in America is so perverted and disgusting and psychopathic. Psychopaths galore. Scum scum scum.
It’s not “alleged” anymore if they’ve agreed to pay.
Disturbing, don't talk to Satan, don't talk to Alexa or Google.
Amazon caught stealing children's voices and images from user data. Jail Bezos.
Musk finally steps down from Twitter CEO months after Twitter users and shareholders said they wanted him ousted.
Maybe Twitter will now stop promoting right-wing propaganda. I guess we'll have to wait a few months more…
Who gets the money?
Lol that's nothing
When do I get my money?
Google is next!
Only $30 millions is the ultimate spit in people’s face, That’s not even a packet change for amazon! Law should change to fine corporates based on their over all revenue during the time which they break the law, punishments should be painful that is the point !
Well, that’s just a drop in the bucket
So can i get 2yrs paid subscription to Prime then? 🧐
I can’t believe Amazon is going bankrupt. That’s horrible. 30 million dollars!? That’s gotta be almost all of their money. Well I’m glad that the affected parties are getting this settlement money. That’d be crazy if it was just going to other rich people. Thank god for the American dream
Should be 300 million
