It continues the process. You got a pittance, and used it to extend a subscription to a company that will continue to mistreat both its employees and you as a customer, and are considering it money well spent.

Its profitable because its only an issue if they get caught and successfully sued
Its profitable because the payout doesnt change, the more people involved the less each person gets.
its profitable because you’re probably still buying the same things, giving the money they “paid out” right back, and then more on top
in the 6 years they held onto that money, they absolutely used it to further profit, making the “cost” of the suit effectively nothing for them.
Its not a good system, its one that reinforces the same practices.
Cant wait for my $1.50
Don’t forget to claim that on your tax return, so really it’s like $0.45. Enjoy!

Shit, the payout might’ve been from Amazon. I don’t know I don’t care.
