Oh no, a new "cost of doing business" has been established. Honestly, what's the point of the jail time here? We have never put a company (even though we've granted them personhood) in jail.
True, but as they noted in the article, this gives the law a few more teeth, like the ability to extradite people, so while it likely won't effect the big corporations, I think small fly by night companies that avoid the law by moving out of state will be held accountable.
