T-Mobile reported $40B in revenue for FY 2017, so this fine represents 00.1% of their total revenue. Is this sort of fine really going to deter them?

How big fine should be, according to you, to really deter them?

10~20% of "net" yearly income imho or instead of a fine, levy penalty tax rate like how credit works.
