violating users privacy and acting as a hostile monopoly is ballparks different than receiving a ticket

  The basic idea is the same so.

    just with the slightly difference of violating the park space of a single vehicle vs. violating the personal data of millions if not billions of users... quasi equal!

      Last time I got a speeding ticket, it was considerably less than 2% of my gross salary. The basic idea so is the same, the amount of the fine is up for discussion so. Case in point: income based speeding tickets in Scandinavia vs. fixed amounts elsewhere (I favor the former, as things stand I don't care about the, for me, negligible amounts for 10 km/h speeding every once in a while, which is rather unfair, as I know a lot of people who cannot ignore the existing speeding fines in Germany). Edit: Regarding corporate fines, authorities should be a lot more aggressive claiming those. E.g. payable immediately after first trial, put in escrow until appeal. And change accointing laws so the fine in escrow cannot be shown in cash balances and has to be taken into account for profit and loss.

        also adding severe consequences for repeated offenses... like a driver would lose their permission to drive if they keep doing the same error! now, what that would be, i have no idea; as i don't think any country wants to ban stuff like Google or Meta services from their population
