YAHOO Data Breach Victims Get $100. Lawyers Get $35 Million

Yahoo will pay up to $85 million to settle a class action lawsuit over its massive data breach, reports the Recorder, a legal publication.

That includes $50 million for compensation for up to 200 million affected users plus another $35 million for lawyers’ fees and expenses.
