How do you mean? Because they pled guilty this case can’t be used as justification for other cases?

Right. It’s because this is a plea and a plea is not a judicial decision. Had they lost in court and been found guilty than that would have set precedent. This is a negotiated settlement to avoid trial.

Well, that is a silver lining then for sure.

So they are taking a hit that, in part, benefits the rest of us. Or at least avoids a worse global outcome. I mean, I guess that’s at least a cherry on top of the shit sundae they got served.
