    Laws exist for everyday people like you and me, not for megacorps like Apple. Laws and regulations are just minor business expenses to them.

      A fine is just an calculable price to do something wrong, businesses love them, from the classic study:

      Parents used to arrive late to collect their children, forcing a teacher to stay after closing time. We introduced a monetary fine for late-coming parents. As a result, the number of late-coming parents increased significantly.

        Just keep adding zeroes until you get the desired outcome.

          This is the correct answer. If the fine was $1000 for every time you picked your kid up late you can guarantee parents would never arrive late. Same goes for businesses. The fine just needs to be in the hundreds of millions to billions. They’d change their tune.
