> they will have to live with the injury for the rest of their life. Case in point - this girl.

I’m conflicted in taking this side, but if it’s millions — with an s — given just to her, then she’s basically set for life. Never has to work again to maintain a decent middle-class life, because her FB friends saw her nudes. That seems wildly disproportionate — most everyone I know would gladly take that trade.

If it’s a class action suit, or is constructed such that not all that money goes to this one victim, that’s a different thing. The part that disturbs me is whenever being a victim can become similar to winning the lottery.
