Facebook had net income over $60 billion dollars in the 5 years that lawsuit was going on.

At that rate they can continue violating people's rights indefinitely, so I really don't see the difference.



The question was only "what" recourse there was (and the answer - some), not whether said recourse fixed the issue entirely, nor even whether it is effective.

The difference between "some" recourse and "no" recourse is not insignificant. It is exponentially harder to move the needle from "no recourse" to "some" than it is from "some" to "more."
