minus-squarehaui@lemmy.giftedmc.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up24·11 months agoWho wants to bet the damage caused and profit gained by this action was a lot higher than this?
minus-squareflyboy_146@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·11 months ago…but it’s a start. And it will have a bigger impact than if there was no penalty at all. 🤷
minus-squarehaui@lemmy.giftedmc.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up16·11 months agoYes, absolutely. Still, fines for fortune 500 companies should always be damage+profit gained from the action times two.
minus-squareCethin@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up13·11 months agoI would say damage + profit + %revenue. It should be made to sting.
minus-squarehaui@lemmy.giftedmc.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·11 months agoYeah, that would work too. As long as they gain absolutely nothing every time they get caught it should already work but I‘m okay with either solution. Just the current situation needs to end soon.
