Yeah, we’re at a point where companies have accepted it’ll happen and pay for fucking cybersecurity insurance to protect their capital instead of spending that money on actual security.
Increasing the liability just means the premiums will be passed down to the users, and insurance companies will be rolling in cash. Not like the users would get the settlements anyway.
And of course there’s the whole problem of disposable LLCs, so even a corporate death penalty would do shit, because our society doesn’t give a shit about people, only capital.
