The ACLU has a long history of prevailing in court, as does the NRA.

Courts should regularly issue rulings you don't like. Their job isn't to make people happy.

"long history of prevailing in court" is another way of saying "Google isn't being punished as much as they deserve"

Sure, but I think we can all agree the US legal system very, very, very rarely issues any ruling that materially punishes a corporation. Even the worst of the worst typically get off very easy.

Do you disagree with that?
