We previously called the program an "evil, predatory scam," and found several pieces of evidence that we believed established false advertising, misleading promotional materials, bait-and-switch tactics, and marketing towards children. Now, NZXT and Fragile have agreed in a preliminary settlement (pending Judge approval) to pay $3,450,000 in damages, restitution, debt forgiveness, and PC retention costs to the approximately 20,000 people harmed by NZXT's and Fragile's actions.
