Equifax's market cap is $11B, so yeah, I'd say a $20B fine would get them to stop mishandling user data, as they'd go bankrupt.

That sends a very loud message to shareholders of other companies: make sure that management is securing whatever data the company has or risk having your entire investment be wiped out.
