This resulted in several class-action lawsuits. They recently settled one of them and agreed to pay each affected customer $16.</p> <p>From an individual perspective this isn’t a lot. However, for those who are eligible for the settlement I have a proposal: <a href="http://www.p2pcongestionsettlement.com/">submit your claim form</a> and make it part of a larger donation to your local food bank or homeless shelter.</p> <p>That’s what I’m going to do.</p>
