Do you know how long and expensive the litigation process would be for an issue like this? It would drag on for years and cost millions, its quite possible that they felt paying a $3MM settlement would be cheaper and get it over with today, even if they weren't doing anything wrong. There's tons of cases like this, such as Xanga.com's $1MM settlement regarding COPPA and even with companies like Microsoft. This is a lot more common than you may think.
