FTFY:

How Rogue Officers Turned a Nationwide Tool for Stalking Into a Tool for Stalking

or perhaps

How a Tool for Stalking is Used by the People For Whom it was Designed

that has no teeth when they can just pay the tiny fine.

its like saying “you better pay me a dollar today or I’ll charge you $20 tomorrow!”

google is like “lol here’s a dollar, we complied. also we earned $1000 working up this massive $1 fine. of course were paying on time, why would I want to put a late fee on my rounding error of a fine?”

oh lovely, a fine amounting to 0.8% of their cash-on-hand. that’ll show ‘em.

edit to crowd source checking my shitty math:

Google Cash-on-hand ≈ €111 billion Fine ≈ €900 million

(900,000,000 / 111,000,000,000) * 100 = 0.8

if I’m an idiot please be nice about it lmao
