Still meaningless with zero effect on company value.

Not really.

Norway has 5,391,369 people, and assuming ~40% use facebook, that's 2 million people that use facebook. 36.5 million dollars per year of fines mean that it's 18 dollars per user per year.

Facebook has 2 billion users worldwide, and has a revenue of 33 billion every year. If all of those 2 billion users fined facebook for 18 dollars per year, that's their whole revenue gone.

It just doesn't have that much effect right now because it's only norway doing it.
