Pocket change for a corporation like Meta. They won’t even notice it. It’s the right direction, Norway, but this isn’t your average company.

If they leave it for 10 years it will be 0.4% of their yearly gross profit. They will surely care :^) tbh these fines need to be exponential instead of linear.

Just fine them 1 dollar with a daily interest rate of 1%.
