If a social media company leaks private photos of its users, the company's executives and senior staff shall have its photos leaked.
I would love something like that. Nobody protects anyone else's interests in this modern world unless there's Skin in the Game. Would highly recommend reading Nassim Taleb's book of the same name; he is popularizing this term, and its implications to society.
You misunderstand what "eye for an eye" means.
"Eye for an eye" means let the punishment fit the crime.
Before "eye for an eye" was established by religious texts, the common retaliation for poking someone's eye out was death.
"Eye for an eye" was a step towards a more civilized justice system.

And houses are not free.
Are you seriously suggesting that information in this day and age does not have the power to directly cause harm, including lethal harm, to people?
Also - that it can be used for organizing bad behaviours is an entirely different subject that has little to do with quality or security.
But Facebook is a company that actively snoops and uses the data of its resources, the end-user. It's like a security guard who's paid to prevent shoplifting actively ignoring violent crimes because it's not related to stealing, or a baby food company ignoring that some metal got into their food because the food is still OK if you pick out the metal bits.
If the government wants to hire people to decide what counts as what - they should do that.
Building Code
229. If a builder builds a house for a man and does not make its construction sound, and the house which he has built collapses and causes the death of the owner of the house, the builder shall be put to death.
233. If a builder builds a house for a man and does not make its construction sound, and a wall cracks, that builder shall strengthen that wall at his own expense.
Bugs in houses have been criminalized for a very long time. Online data may be less fundamental than safe housing, but housing our data safely becomes proportionally more important as more of modern life depends on it.
