    Class members, estimated in the tens of millions, may receive up to $20 per Siri-enabled device, such as iPhones and Apple Watches.

    The $95m is about nine hours of profit for Apple, whose net income was $93.74bn in its latest fiscal year.

    That is not much to cover the violation of privacy and all the private discussions sent to third party advertisers.
