Please be open and honest and tell us what your total court bill was when you last took Google (or any other multinational) to court? Was it less than R10 000 000 or more like R50 000 000 ? And, did you lose or win? And, even if you won, did you recover any of the R10-R50 million? Please share, as your view and strong opinions are very important. You did take a long time to reflect and consider your strong opinion, so I am sure you read the article and thought about your very strong views for a long time...
