So, the equivalent of them having 1 bad week of sales out of 52?
How much did they make on the sale? I bet it more than covers the fines, which makes it the cost of doing business.
This would totally happen under trump. It just screams the kind of consumer protection that trump and the GQP are known for.

Title might as well be FCC approves sale of location data, with fee.
