Using 7 chars to represent 8. Now that’s efficiency!
Do you, though? Pi starts 3.141592, but 7/22 starts 3.142857, already wrong by the 4th digit.
That’s not the bet. It’s a frivolous lawsuit with no chance at succeeding.
They’re either betting that defending it would cost more than $25M, that a bribe will bring them favor, or, more likely, accepting that the cost of doing business in Mein Dönald’s America is to periodically pay large baseless “fines” at the whim of a dementia patient.

They’d just shut down any accounts doing this. They already detect and shut down account sharing and this is just a variant of that. No law or government intervention necessary.

chisel@piefed.socialto Gaming@lemmy.world•Electronic Arts in advanced talks to go private at roughly $50 billion valuationEnglish8·7 days agoEvery company starts out privately owned. Being publically owned means you are legally required to put shareholders’ interests first and thus essentially be purely profit and growth driven, leanding to an unsustainable cycle of infinite growth which is a major cause of the enshitification of everything as we know it today.
Private companies can at least set their own goals and do things other than chase profit. Typically, that’s either “chase profit so the owners can cash out” or “focus on providing an actually good service/product so that profit/growth will follow”.
Private Equity is probably what you’re thinking about, where a PE firm purchases a company that’s either already private or they make it private again. There are many PE firms with many different management styles and goals, but the overwhelming majority have a goal of squeezing every last penny out of a company using any means necessary and fucking over the employees as much as possible before divesting it and moving to the next one.

Regretably, I don’t have any articles on-hand about the tens of thousands of people that are losing money to this scam.
The government is doing everything about this. It’s literally being done entirely by the government.
If you want the government to be doing the opposite thing about this, the time for action was during the past few elections, before the fascists got control over all three branches. Best the dems can do now is try to lock things up as best they can. Maybe by shutting down the government or something idk.
