Nah they would have added more fees to subsidize the protections they weren't going to put in place. Then reach out to the government for subsidies to put these protections in place. Then give bonuses, stock buy backs and when it happened again, they'd raise the fees installed previously and consider making the upgrades if the fine threatened is high enough, if not they'll pay the fine and buy back more stock and run an ad campaign to make the company look better.
