You phrased that nicely. :)
Large companies indeed usually don't get in trouble for tax evasion, but they are certainly the ones more often committing it. They don't call it "evasion", of course, but more like "tax minimization", or "using every legal loophole possible known to our army of lawyers".
The only thing Meta messed up is maybe not being up-to-date with some obscure legal gotcha in Italy, and even so, the fine will just be the cost of doing business.

If you can't innovate, regulate!
