Exactly this, kick them out of California and don't allow them back as an example of what happens when you fuck around.

    Fining them a double digit percentage of their **gross ** revenue also works.

    I like that idea, but I really feel that corporations should face actual permanent consequences (just like a regular person) in order to begin balancing society. Until we put our foot down and bring mega corps to heel they will continue to lie, cheat, steal, and assist in things like genocide.

    This isn't a new problem either. IBM provided the computing power and logistics that allowed Germany to carry out the Holocaust in the same way Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and Google have done so for Israel.

    These companies are at war with humanity.
