Oh, don't worry. Robinhood agreed to sign a piece of paper agreeing that it wouldn't break the law any more.
And just to be clear, this isn't the first time that Robinhood has blatently broken the existing laws and regulation.
The "infinite money" "glitch" is a situation which is straight-up codified to be not allowed (for obvious reasons). They were either incompetent or negligent.
They attempted to release a "bank account" product and claimed it would be covered by insurance which it would not be. Again, either incompetence, or negligence.
