Sleeping on the wrong pillow can make you pretty miserable, but that doesn’t mean that sleeping on the right pillow is a magical medical treatment. MyPillow, a $90 pillow that could be yours if you ordered it from direct-response television ads, has had some legal problems ranging from false advertising to knowing failure to collect sales tax to class action suits.

Truth in Advertising has been on the pillow’s case for most of the last year, and consumer protection officials in California have come to a settlement with the company over accusations of false advertising. Turns out that you can’t make unfounded claims about how a pillow treats actual medical problems.

Here are MyPillow’s recent legal troubles, which either have had or will have real-life financial consequences for the company. For some perspective, the company has reportedly sold four million pillows, though.

1. Note to self: Just because you can buy TV time...

Doesn't mean what you're hawking is worth a shit.

3. Trump supporter who's just like Trump

Charging an exorbitant price for a piece of shit pillow and turning around and justifying it by making unfounded claims, health and otherwise to get you to shell out 10x the typical cost of a pillow you'd get in a department store. On top of that, MyPillow didn't even bother to disclose that they had a financial stake in the National Sleep Foundation, an orginazation I hadn't heard of until I saw their ads on TV.

The only thing left is for the MyPillow guy to stiff the plaintiffs on the settlement money. Then we'll have absolute proof positive that he's a Trumpanzee.
