    Hmm, $1 million? That sounds like a lot of money. How much money do they make in a year, I wonder? Oh, $1.6 billion. Okay, so the people responsible for this deliberate scam they pulled probably didn’t even notice the fine. Sweet. Functioning system.

    Remember friends, a million seconds is about 11 days and a billion seconds is about 32 years. They fined Razer 11 days of their 50 years of revenue. Wowee! That’ll show 'em.

      I’m just amazed they apparently sold a million dollars worth of this thing.

      Unless fines are percentages, they’re either overly punishing to the poor, or underly punishing to the rich. ✊
