While these fines may seem exorbitant, it is worrying that the financial impact of such punishments rarely acts as a deterrent to these large technology companies, whose market capitalisation runs into the hundreds of billions of dollars.
Yeah. We need the equivalent of the giant "stop work" stickers that get plastered on a building's front door when construction doesn't have a permit. Otherwise it's just another operating cost to pass along to VCs/users.
We need a corporate death penalty. Full stop.
Immaterial punishment.
Why not prison immediately?
No mention of who imposed the fines? Or am I missing something
