I've thought about a couple of analogous concepts.

The first is the automatic civil penalty for copying copyrighted music recordings. If you're caught and proven liable, the dollar amount of damages don't need to be debated -- they're pre-determined.

The second is the concept that mere possession of certain kinds of information (unspeakable pornography) is a criminal offense.

I think some combinations of these concepts could create a bounty system for victims to collect on the abuse of their personal information: 1) Improper possession is inherently illegal. 2) Offer for sale or transfer of the information carries an automatic civil penalty.

Since music "piracy" has been demonstrated to increase music purchases, this fixed dollar amount should therefore be negative. Any music I am found sharing shall result in the music industry paying me. Sounds about right.
