I mean, really, you probably have $0 worth of damages to worry about. If something in particular happens, like corporate espianage hurting your business that causes real damage, then you have the freedom to sue for that particular thing (supposing you aren’t locked out by the settlement I suppose.)

Oh, yeah. That $3.07 settlement covers the damages with a little to spare. Now I can put a down-payment on some French fries.

It’s less about making you whole and more about hurting the corporation. Although that’s a drop in the bucket for Alphabet. “Cost of doing business”.

Sounds like neither

It’s less like “hurting” the corporation, and more like the government or legal system claiming their share in the proceeds of the crime… essentially racketeering.
