- azinman2 6y agoI’m shocked they even settled. Probably they felt it was the cheapest action, but such a lawsuit feels quite predatory. An important legal concept is harms done, and as this Forbes article points out, there really weren’t any material harms done. Now Tesla on the other hand, absolutely falls into the realm of material harms done…

- fma 6y agoWow I knew they settled and to me that's "successful". I didn't realize the settlement was thrown out...or that a settlement can even be thrown out!
- boomboomsubban 6y agoI also have no idea who appeals it to get a settlement reviewed.
