They deserve it.

Moreover, fines this big for companies this big need to become more common. We need to stop thinking that mere millions or billions of dollars can do anything to trillion-dollar megacorporations.

It's like how the EU has been fighting to fine Google some billions of dollars recently. It's supposed to be such a large fine, supposedly one of the largest fines ever issued but it's still practically nothing. It's not even close to significant.

People's brains seem to break with figures this large, billions must feel so large somehow and such an overreach already, but it's really, really not, especially compared to something like Google, or Facebook.

There are so many more orders of magnitude before it starts to matter, it's not even funny, it's just sad.

For example: Google has finally just recently been ordered to pay a €4.1bn fine they've been appealing for eight years. Not only could they have probably originally paid the fine dozens of times over on the spot, but they were able to appeal it for EIGHT YEARS, making for many hundreds or even thousands of times over the fine could've been paid. That fine is literally nothing for them.
