This is not the same as class-action suits, in fact it wasn't even a court case. So why lawyers were likely involved, the ones on the DPC side were likely employed and therefore don't receive a payout. Considering if this gets collected, I certainly assume so, do you have any indication it doesn't?

I mean the lawyers who will argue the fine is unfair.
Or are many of these headlines just a pay day for lawyers?
