Seems like that would be illegal and they should be on trial. I wonder if I went into Amazon and started to destroy a PC or two would I be held accountable?

Just behead them all and be done with it, we know they’re guilty.

of course they did, the penalty for getting caught destroying evidence is far, far less than the penalty for the price fixing they’re accused of. the law is designed to incentivize them to do this.

we could make it so that the penalty for destroying evidence in a court case once its been subpoenaed is twice the penalty of the original case, but we don’t. we could make CEOs responsible for the actions of their employees (after all, they’re quick to claim responsibility for the actions of their employees when those actions generate money), but we don’t.

I will only be surprised if someone actually ends up going to prison. More likely, the company will just get hit with a fine that’s just the cost of doing business.

Although Romney said, “Corporations are people too, my friend” you can’t throw Amazon in jail.

Closest they can do is a forced break up. A “Ma Bell” so to speak 🔔
