    Wow, they do this just 2 days after being fined $2 billion by EU!
    Unless you don’t know this “Tim Apple”, those fines have a tendency to increase with repeated violations.

          So you wouldn’t mind if 2% of your yearly salary after tax would disappear, right?

            That’s a false comparison. Salary after tax is not comparable to profit. Profit is after ALL expenses. So if I did something really really stupid, after being warned about it and repeatedly, and was fined 2% after ALL expenses, I’d say I got off easy.

        $2B is actually 2% of their profit. That’s 7.3 days.
