Conservatively:
Amazon makes approximately 800k per minute, so in about 45 minutes they’ve recouped their money. Make it one hour just to cover all other costs, lawyers, etc involved in this.
Is that revenue, or profit? Also is this specifically revenue on France or globally?
Doesn’t matter as it won’t be enough to prevent them from continuing breaking the law.
Idk I did some math from the first search result I found
It's kind of a big difference. If a company makes 300M but spends 400M it's unsustainable despite it being huge numbers.
That’s just the cost of doing business for Amazon. Why should they change their tactics if the fees are that low.
