Is there any precedent for a company to pay damages in a combination of money and goods. For example paying N dollars in legal fees, and issuing new phones to those affected within some filter criteria?
I ask because the only people who tend to benefit from from issues like this are the lawyers involved. Besides the damages being potentially punitive to the company responsible and maybe preventing recurrence of the same issue, nothing really improves for the people personally affected by the problem being sued over.
