I have mixed feelings about the record $170 million settlement between Google and the Federal Trade Commission over Google’s alleged violations of the

Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA).  Even though the fine represents more than all other COPPA fines combined, it still amounts to a slap on the wrist compared with the enormous amount of money made by Google’s parent, Alphabet. According to Wired, it translates to “roughly two days’ worth of profit.”
