What the hell?
"All of the parties involved in the case have lucrative business interests at stake. PRI was making $4.2 million to $7.5 million in revenue annually from social media advertising alone, according to court records. The plaintiffs’ YouTube revenues were lower but still substantial. The highest earning kid in the lawsuit was averaging $28,000 in monthly revenue from his own channel; that dropped to $4,800 a month after the minor left the Squad."

that's a lot of money!
