This is serious and I hate that I can't find a follow-up.

I searched and the only update I can find is that Apple managed to get the gross negligence and fraud by non-disclosure complaints dismissed along with the request for punitive damages. All locked behind a paywall though. Case is Gordoa v. Apple Inc et al, U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, No. 3:22-cv-02900 for anyone that has paid access to legal databases.

Why the fuck are legal databases locked behind paywalls

PACER charges per page. Mirrors charge less than that. The best is court listener, which doesn't have a paywall but might not have all documents. They're nonprofit.

The reason courts charge is because they decided to fund the filing services by lawyers paying for it instead of general taxes.
