But it's OFFICIAL!

I got an email about a class action settlement over alleged price fixing of CD/DVD drives in the early 2000s. Went to the website for more info, and found… this.

Screenshot of the website

"You have reached the official website for the Optical Disk Drives Antitrust Settlements" - with line art of a tower PC and an internal CD drive...with cartoon arms holding out money, giant googly eyes, and sticking their CD drawers out like tongues.

Really inspires confidence, I tell ya.
