"can be simply shrugged off as a cost of operation"

You clearly didn't read my last message very closely. The whole idea is that the fine needs to change the economics so that it's no longer a good business decision. A business is going to pick the path of least "cost of operation", so you make sure that those forces push it in the direction that's best for society.

you clearly underestimate the revenue of google. 57 million dollars is something google can shrug off as a cost of operation, attack the strongest point not the weakest point, and not the poster please review the HN guidelines.
