You can also get free credit monitoring for 2 years if you don't want the cash settlement.

Although 117m is a huge amount of money, although hardly a dent in the grand scheme of things.

It might be one check per address, not sure you can claim multiple unless you can prove you are multiple people in a way from what I know about class actions.

Yeah make sure you claim on a different ip for each one to prevent them flagging them individually if your details aren't the same across them.
Gotta maximize then profits.
