Obviously. We can't actually punish bad actors, because it would set a president that the pursuit of profit at the expense of individual freedom is actually dangerous. Much better to give out ritualistic slaps on the wrist to run on headlines and reinstill trust in our endlessly crumbling system.

Be on the lookout at Meta's campaign contributions in the next few years, I'm sure none of the regulatory bodies of US communications will be on it :)
