I wonder if that's the case. I think the source of the problem is people prioritising the short term over the long term, and I'm not sure whether potential jail time in the long run will deter you when your direct environment is pushing you another way.

Instead, if the company risks fines like these, the environment of its employees may start to emphasise derisking more, to prevent them from being hit with new fines.

Of course, this is all just me looking into my crystal ball.
