    So… £35.50 per iphone affected? Thats just a cost of business… Basically a cost of buisness not a serious punishment…

    The UK does not hold companies to account. This is pointless under this Tory government. Google got away with data abuse because no one suffered any damages apparently. P&O dismissed its workers.

      No government holds companies responsible for anything. It’s no better in the states. We as citizens have one purpose, to make the rich richer.

      As the French revolutionary Voltaire put it: “The comfort of the rich depends on an abundant supply of the poor.”

        OFC government can hold companies to account. What do you think the Leveson inquiry was about? The monopolies commission, Grenfel inquiry and many more.
