Can anyone else find what the RGB stand for here? What's an RGB mask?

What is the deepest level of Hell we can condemn these fuckers to, and is it possible to excavate anything lower?

I'm glad there's been some action on this, but a $1M fine is pathetic.

This was knowingly and willfully endangering public health (as well as probably contributing to the fallacy that “masks don't work); there should be jail time for those responsible.
