    While technically true, the fine is actually around 0.7% of what they lost on metaverse (estimated 80 billion)

      Thanks! I guess the article I use for reference was from near the start of that debacle.

      How does on spend 80 billion on a metaverse? (And would it have been another 40 billion to add legs?)
