The great irony here is that people have no issue stealing data -- copyright theft is considered "normal" by many people.

However, if it's your data, then maybe jail time should be on the table?

Yes, because the potential damage is much more severe. If someone pirates a movie, the damage is about the price of a movie ticket. If someone's private data gets stolen, it can ruin their entire life.

It's not irony. It's you being willfully blind to the difference between "this has copyright" and "this is personal data". Those two aren't even similar!
