Individual does this -- CFPA indictment instantly.

MegaCorp does this -- Oh dear, we absolutely must meet to plan to implement a meeting to form a panel that will plan to meet to maybe ask nicely that MegaCorp stop what they're doing (or pay us lots of lobbying funds to make it go away, which it will do anyhow, just not quite as quietly as if they pay us $$$)

What's a CFPA indictment?

Do you mean Computer Fraud and Abuse Act (CFAA)?

The only reason this might see real legal action is that FB did this to other megacorps.
