I strongly disagree with that. She clearly couldn't prove damages anyway because it was shown her income didn't substantially decrease.
You say no $1m payday as though she was just suing to get her subscription fee back. She is suing for $1m and you are for some reason equating the frivolousness of the lawsuit with it being for some noble cause.
If there is age discrimination in Hollywood then why is she suing IMDb for publishing information they have every right to release? Surely she should be suing the companies with discriminatory auditioning practices.
As for her agent having no reason to look at her IMDb profile - that's total hogwash. If prospective employers will be looking at it then it's the agent's job to look at the profile and ensure it portrays their client well whilst still being accurate.
It's pretty clear here that this is not some grand statement about age discrimination and is really just an absurd money grab.
