#43I read the title as $100.00 because it had a decimal and I'm American. Looking at the TOS it appears to be $100,000.00 which is quite a bit bigger than I thought from the headline.
Yay, you're American. Most of the world isn't.
You know, it's not just Americans who use dots for decimal points. New Zealand, Australia, Canada, India, and a whole lot of other countries use that format too.

When I put "saygent" in the second field:
> $100k fine for linking to saygent.com
> $200k royalty fee for using the term 'Saygent' in anchor text
Yet it shows $350,000 total fine.
