Imagine the fine for robbing a bank was $100

It's actually more like $8.50 fine...

($100B annual income vs $100K personal income)

When you rob a bank, you're presumably getting at least a few thousand dollars. If the fine were actually $100, then the ROI is on the order of 10x-100x. How much money do you think apple got for "illegally harvesting iPhone owners’ data for targeted ads without proper consent"? Do you think apple made $85M to $850M from it?
