Are these fines close to the business value gained from getting this legislation passed over the last 5 years? Seems unlikely. Nobody is going to jail. So where is the disincentive?
Agreed. When a company does something illegal, the "company" is liable. But it was actually a person within the company who made the decision to do this; companies are not sentient. Why are the decision makers not held liable instead?
Cost of doing business. Seems like this had positive ROI.
I’d like for companies that do illegal things to have repercussions in line with what an individual would face for doing the same thing. Whoever signs off on it at the highest level should pay the price.
