    While the settlement appears to be a victory for Apple users after months of mediation, it potentially lets Apple off the hook pretty cheaply. If the court had certified the class action and Apple users had won, Apple could’ve been fined more than $1.5 billion under the Wiretap Act alone, court filings showed.

      Seems like a great chance to challenge the whole “eula can be used to force meditation instead of court”. Was this a class action meditation? How does it claim valid representation for people who were affected but weren’t a part of the meditation?

      Should also challenge the whole corporate veil because there would be criminal charges if any individual did this and even though they were surrounded by a corporate structure, this was also done by individuals.
