Although Google has done plenty for Technology and Humanity, when it comes to ads-marketing-tracking they are simply ruthless. Perhaps that penalty will make Google reconsider their stance on respecting everyone (and not just the ones who give them billions).
Next horror story to come to your monitors over the next 5 years is monetising on the below:
I search for "Item A". One week later I purchase "Item A". 2 days later Google reaches out to the retailer claiming $ for sending me to that specific retailer.

They will not reconsider unless it hurts them more than when they don't act this ruthless. Therefore: needs a heavier fine still :D Crime and exploiting monopolies must not pay.
