These kinds of behaviors won't really change until governments finally pull their heads out of their asses and ensure that regulatory violations above a certain threshold are aimed squarely at imprisoning or personally fining certain key decision makers inside a company. You know, actual people inside its structure, not just the monstrosity as a bloated, extremely wealthy business entity that can and will absorb fines as nothing more than a cost of doing business.. That they fine the corporate entity as well, sure, why not but that they also explicitly make it known that they will seek criminal charges against actual human beings who made specific choices and decisions to ignore certain major rules. Even if the top brass cover their asses with lawyers under such a regime, asking any subordinate to break rules will always be weighed with the question of "and will I be one of the ones who gets literally jailed for this being uncovered in court?" That wholly new chain of consequence-weighing might at least make blatant disregard for legal limitations more problematic for everyone at a company like FB and so many others. It might also make the leadership hesitate more because they'll rarely be sure if an employee they asked to do something illegal isn't also gathering evidence against them as he or she violates the rules under their orders. Punishing malfeasance by applying nothing more than fines to multi-billion dollar corporate entities as abstractions is absurd nonsense. And it's funny in its hypocrisy, considering how "tough on big corporations" is a popular politician's theme that gets votes, only to be forgotten by both politicians, and apparently, voters as well once someone is in a position to make rules with real weight.
