I'm really glad this precedent was set as far as internet astroturfing goes. It just bums me out that this happened nearly five years ago and I haven't heard of any company being fined since then.

That's good that they're taking action against these scum, astroturfing needs to become a financial liability in order to curb this shit.

I doubt they are the only ones. Though I am more worried about shills hired to cover up dangers. Say of nuclear power or agricultural and industrial chemicals.
