A great place to start is data privacy laws. If they don’t collect unnecessary PII, it can’t be exposed.

But yes, companies need to face more liability. While it’s true that no one is inhackable - you’d need to be perfect everywhere all the time and the bad guys only need one break to succeed - there are best practices that make it a lot more unlikely. If you as a company have been hacked and you’re not taking good care of your customers data, you should be liable for carelessness. Admittedly following good data security practices can be expensive but that’s why there should be consequences for those who cut corners
