It's interesting that you think that someone who understands that paying
half a billion dollars to settle a fraud case is getting his "ass handed to
him" when you defended that settlement with the absurd claim that Apple
paid the half a billion dollars because Apple did absolutely nothing wrong.

Half a billion dollars can build ~five of the Francis Scott Key bridges!

That's what the court decided Apple had to pay for committing that fraud.
Using your own logic, it's Apple who got their asses handed to them.
