UK data spillers fined, but enforcement slows: £5m in ICO penalties not yet paid

Add the costs of recovery to their fine. If they can't pay, then jail them.

There needs to be a hard line on the fines otherwise they are meaningless.

There used to be an old line - If you can't do the time, then don't do the crime.
