But in this context it really doesn't work well as an analogy.
Few rich people have any inclination to sleep rough, whereas many wealthy tech companies have been happily selling their users' data as the law allowed it.
The idea is large companies can steal many loaves of bread and get away with it on a technicality because they have the resources to comply with the letter of the law while pissing on its spirit.
Only little people would steal a crust of bread for their supper. The rich generally commit bigger crimes.
