re: My 49 cent settlement check shows how worthless most class action lawsuits are

Y'all realize that class action lawsuits deter companies from bad behavior, don't you? Meaning it is good for the consumer in the grand scheme of things

Funny how in a similar case, a major utility was allowed to refund directly to customers, rather than face a huge fine. No class action involved. I think I got like $400 in credit

Seems a better plan (except for my fellow attys, who bitched nonstop at the settlement)
