Market cap is generally the wrong measure. If you registered asf1254 Inc., and it was always just you, and it traded like Meta stocks trade, then "asf1254 Inc." would have a market cap ~6.2× whatever you're currently earning.

i.e., if you earn $100k/year, you'd be "worth" $620k, and 1% of that would be a fine of $6200.

You may earn 100k/y and have 10M real estate + 2M in bank. Why would you dumb down market cap to earnings?

Anyway, 6K for harming children at that scale remains ridiculous.
