Paid over what time period? And how much has been paid to date?

One of those is in the billions. The total is about 2 months of Meta income. It's literally a slap on the wrist.

at this point, Meta becomes a source of revenue for these governments

not saying Meta is in the right (they should have been paying this money in taxes anyway), but they're not going to be hard stopped from handing over money for free either

you know how much governments love pumping their sources... especially once a government start running out of their previous resources... 6B for everyone's pictures suddenly seems like a line item on someones defense budget :/
