      it’s more complicated when it’s an entire corporation. Corporations only care about the bottom line so they’ll let their minions take the blame. The only real solution is to hurt them in the wallet enough that they have to play by the rules to make a profit.

        Not really. Put the C suite in prison and I’m sure the next crew will think twice. They can try and throw underlings under the bus but we don’t have to accept that. The buck stops at the top.

        Send the whole corporation to prison since they have legal rights same as I do (but I can’t afford to enforce mine).
