$154,400 is nearly zero in this context, no?
- haggy102 4y agoThe first paragraph... "The United States Navy must pay $154,400 in copyright infringement damages to German software company Bitmanagement. The U.S. Court of Federal Claims awarded the compensation after the Navy was shown to have copied and used software without permission. Whether Bitmanagement will celebrate this win is up for question as the damages are less than 0.1% of the $155 million it asked for."
- pengaru 4y agoYeah but through the lens of what they asked for I'd expect the %age to be low. What's asked for tends to be utterly disconnected from reality. This figure seems exceptionally small even in absolute terms.
