Interesting. So that's like, 0.2% of their gross revenue, about? Meanwhile, if my cursory math isn't screwed up, if your gross annual income is $100,000, 0.2% of your salary is $200.

So basically, they got something roughly akin to a speeding ticket.

But consider that when you get a speeding ticket your car insurance goes up and you often end-up paying far more than just the initial infraction fine. And you can be automatically disqualified from driving entirely once you get enough points on your license.

So if the fine were even remotely as impactful as a speeding-ticket is to a normal person then GoodRX would have just earned 3 penalty points on their business-license, have substantially higher business indemnity insurance costs, and once they hit enough points and caught doing-business-while-impetuous (DWI) again then the state would seize their business and crush it under a tank[1] and those at the wheel would be behind bars.

Somehow I doubt anything remotely close to that will happen to GoodRX and its management when this inevitably happens again.
