If they were actually illegal then we should see some settlements or court cases resolved over the next year or three. The justice system moves slowly.

  Illegal or not, he faced no consequences for the screw up

  He'll get fines ("settlements", I guess), and that will still have been cheaper than going the legal way. In the meantime many people lost their job in an irregular way (w.r.t. their country), and maybe they can't afford it. That's how much responsibilities too rich people have: it's cheaper for them to go the illegal way and screw those who worked for them.

    The fines will be handed out in such a way that obeying the law would have been cheaper. That's how things are done in Western Europe.

      That's how it's supposed to be. I doubt it really is in practice (at least not always). Let me rephrase it to what I think is the reality: "The fines will be handed out in such a way that obeying the law would have been cheaper as estimated by people who don't really have a way to know." -> That's how lobbying works: people on both sides argue, and some rule decides for something in the middle. It's not exactly a formal proof.
