So they were off, by what, a penny? It's $1.7 million after all. Slice and dice it all you want...
- TeMPOraL 10y agoThey don't offer $1 each, they offer $1.7M to be split according to some criterion correlated with the number of "weeks they have actively driven for Uber".
- uppercasenut 10y agoOK, I got it. But how much can the top person get? Maybe the company doing the math /sending checks takes $1.5 million. In short, it's a scam, like most lawsuit settlements. The lawyers get rich, the state gets some fines and the company admits no wrongdoing and does it again and again.
- TeMPOraL 10y agoI was picking on inaccurate headline. I hate inaccurate headlines - most people don't read all articles and thus end up believing nonsense when a headline is invalidated by its article. RE this settlement being a scam - yeah, I feel the same way.
