I'm pretty sure Facebook considers pissed off regulators a regular cost of doing business.

if(ad_dollars > fines) { do_evil(); }

There are no significant penalties at this time.
They're not focusing on sites like FB, because using them isn't a requirement of any meaningful task.

Lawyers are definitely going after things like companies' job sites. Applying for a job is a protected action and no discrimination is allowed, either intentional or not.

No, but there more and more lawsuits filed every year over website accessibility issues.
