Re: Yay!

And that's the point of class action suits. In very rare cases are the actual complainants looking for large damage awards. In most cases class actions are launched and prosecuted with the understanding that the claimants will get little other than a promise of behavior change by the corporation while the lawyers get a nice payout for taking the risk.

Do I agree with every class action? No, but in the vast majority of cases they are used the advantage of consumers in a system where government is no longer protecting consumer rights.
