**SPOILERS** a glaring legal mistake...
SPOILERS FOLLOW
I admit I haven't watched this movie, so I don't know all the details, my wife was watching the last 5 minutes when I showed up. So I could be wrong on this and I'm sure someone will set me straight.
If you are suing a corporation because they are violating your rights to privacy, and win, that has absolutely NO bearing on what you choose to then divulge to anyone in your personal life. The 'wrong' that the court is fixing is that the corporation had no right to divulge your information and you are entitled to your punitive damages as the result of that ruling. You can then choose to do whatever YOU want to do with YOUR information, thus he would not have to give up the money.
Now, if he had reached a settlement outside of court with the company, and a stipulation of that was that he kept his identity private, then he might have to give up the money. But that didn't happen in this movie.
Seems like a big obvious flaw in the movie's premise.
