When a large corporation experiences a data loss they are usually able to mitigate the loss, possibly pay some fines, one or two heads will roll and then they will move on, recording it as a business loss and a cost of doing business. The CEO still gets paid, the employees are still employed, and the business is still operating.
When a small business has a major data loss, on average 43% are forced to close their doors immediately and forever.‡ Period. Of those remaining, 51% close within two years. In either case the owner's livelihood is gone. All of the work and sweat and tears they have poured into the business are no longer relevant. His employees are now unemployed and have to support themselves and their families through other means. There may be litigation and in some cases fines.
