    Even if it were split evenly across the estimated 14m residents, it only comes to a grand total of $22.47

      After correcting for how many of those are cellphone users, then correcting for how many of those are android users, then correcting for how many of those are the plan owners, it would be considerably more.

      …until you correct for the lawyers fee, then it goes back to $22.47

    Those food based subversion names are all alphabetical. I guess back then they didn’t have enough avocados in the code to call it “California style” so they went with “Cupcake.”

  In the Netherlands there is also a class-action lawsuit coming up, guess there is roughly the same amount of android users here. Maybe a bit more. Will be interesting to see how much lower that amount will be.
