Unfortunately, the FCC probably doesn't have the power to do much more than fine them. It would probably take congress to pass a bill to have jail time or something.
I'm purely guessing though
Reading the article, it sounds like the FCC has enforced similar stuff before. And at up to a $23,000 fine it could add up quickly. And the precedent of previous large fines makes me think this might actually have some teeth.
