This is civil law, not criminal. Maybe criminal liability s needed, but it’s just not reality.

Also: beware what you wish for. Criminal law may allow your bloodlust to be satisfied. But it’s just as likely that the higher burden of proof it requires, and various other differences such as the 5th amendment, make prosecution difficult or impossible.

Not to mention when you accidentally leave some data out there with a misconfigured server you’d maybe go to jail, but in their outrage people don’t think it could happen to them, or be used by someone with other goals.
