On Wednesday, the FTC announced a $5 billion fine on Facebook over rampant privacy abuses that violated a 2011 order — the largest in the agency's history. But even multibillion-dollar fines don't cause tech giants enough pain to stop bad behavior.

But why should we put America's superstar companies in PAIN? Certainly not to punish the platforms merely for being big or for being successful — a narrative the many voices on Big Tech's payroll like to push.

They say they protect users' privacy and that consumers prefer the companies' products and services over the offerings of competitors that depend on their platforms.

Sally_Hubbard Business lmfao... they didn't even have to admit they did anything wrong. And who gets that money, definitely not the people who were hurt. This was just a slap on the wrist for Zuckerberg. He lied to Congress and yet no charges? The powerful and rich can do whatever they want.
