Being sarcastic, I bet the commercial license from EntrOuvert was way cheaper than 860k, this horrendous decision should mean firing of the managers involved in Orange, but being a semipublic company the incentives are wrong and these managers probably have promoted since then.
- sokoloff 3y agoIf they haven’t been promoted in the 14-20 years since the violation occurred, their career has really stalled.
