We spend between 100k and 200k per year at Google. That's a lot of money for us. That's a lot of money, period! We think the settlement is unfair. Since our firm actually does this type of litigation, we will most likely opt-out and will sue Google individually in state court. We may also take on clients who wish to do the same. I suspect what will happen is that Google will end up paying more total money to those who have opted out. For example, if we recover 10 percent of what we spent, and there are another 1000 Google advertisers our size or larger, that apready puts Google's obligations at 100 million USD for the opt outs alone.
