Lol, I'm sure every single person in the class action suit agreed to the settlement, and otherwise would be able to afford to sue them again. Right. Settlement

Settlements are decided by a single class representative, and other class members are often not given notice of their right to opt-out or counter-sue.
- sudhirj 6y agoAnd that's why you'd opt into a class action in the first place. You have a problem, you elect someone to handle it for you, give them decision making power and accept the outcome they've been able to achieve. It's just democracy, no?
- Arubis 6y agoAll of this makes sense except for the bit about democracy. That's unrelated; this happens to be a process that's in use here, but it would work just as well in a monarchy.
