I do get with the frustration, but with the current state of US (federal) laws it is probably the best remedy available now (unlike GDPR where you can really go and score larger fines and even jail time if it is grossly negligent or intentional).

management could be jailed for fraud.

it is the usual thing where the powerful we say “best we could do” but for the weak we find a way to get them in jail if we don’t like them
