Yes, but just to make sure everybody understands it's only the lawyers (and dubious privacy organizations) who get paid, they sent out an email to every Google Mail user stating (quote): "Just to be clear, this is not a settlement in which people who use Gmail can file to receive compensation. Everyone in the U.S. who uses Gmail is included in the settlement, unless you personally decide to opt out before December 6, 2010. The Court will consider final approval of the agreement on January 31, 2011."
