Yes, the correct amount is definitely at least whatever the settlement that they agreed to, where blizzard has effectively admitted that they were wrong and broke the law.

They broke the law. They lost. That's what the courts determined.

What, do you not believe in the law or something? Because this is what the courts did. They said that blizzard was guilty, and therefore I judge them as such.

That is not what the courts said.

From the article:

"In the United States, Activision Blizzard has recently settled a transfer pricing dispute with tax authorities for $345m"

It looks like Blizzard was guilty enough of tax evasion that they had to settle the case for 345m$.

If you have to settle a case for 345m$, then you are guilty enough for me to condemn you.
