| 1195491 | 2011-04-19 00:43:00 | I agree with Digby. That is not justice. $12m is about 4 to 5 days profit. What sort of a penalty is that? It's laughable. |

So your saying that they show be fined a $bil or two and break the company. What if your favorite telco did the same , would you be calling for them to be bankrupt?? |

| 1195493 | 2011-04-19 01:42:00 | Perhaps not a billion or two, but at least a month's profit. $12m to Telecom is just a drop in the bucket. The secretary will most probably pay the fine out of petty cash. | Ulsterman (12815) | ||
| 1195494 | 2011-04-19 04:12:00 | And they should have been fined in 2002. To put them off doing similar antics again. |

| 1195495 | 2011-04-19 07:28:00 | How about jail time for the management given the "no apology we are appealing the fine" response. | nerd89 (14761) | ||
