  • So google got fined 2x10 ^ 34?

    The earth is made up of 1.33x10 ^ 50 atoms. An A4 sheet of paper is made up of 8.37x10 ^ 23. Let’s assume roughly a dollar bill is 1/8th of an A4 sheet, so 1x10 ^ 23.

    The atoms in the dollar bill (10 ^ 23) multipled by the fine total (2x10 ^ 34) is 2x10 ^ 57.

    This means if every atom on the entire earth was rearranged into dollar bills you wouldn’t have enough money. You would need to do that to a million earths to pay that fine.

    Disclaimer: I half assed this math on my lunch break and I trusted Google AI results for the atom counts
