It shouldn't be a fine at all. It should be jailtime for executives involved, and asset seizure.
That is the solution.
And before the usual story "but companies are not people and you cannot punish people for things a company did": in the end, in a company there is always someone that make a decision. It is too easy to commit a crime and then say "but the company did it".
It's how they always hide, and they won't ever stop until we hold them accountable. By law or otherwise.
