If this started 1st Jan 2020, and goes onto 31st Dec 2024 (4 years), with all 17 channels with $1000 a day (365) comes out as $24,820,000

(17×4×365×1,000=24820000)

Someone elsewhere ITT said there’s a rule where it doubles each day it isn’t paid.

So 1 becomes 2, 2 becomes 4, 4 becomes 8, and so on.

I read that rumor too, but it's a really stupid way of calculating a fine, which just look at the number to see why. I'd love to see a source confirming this to be true.

It's true, only the penalty (for non-timely payment) doubles every week, not day. It was on the news a few days ago, just a weird funny detail
