Not even 5 years. It's a fucking joke. These bastards were heinous. Heck, the c suite at the top also might have been aware. How does a company survive after this? An ordinary individual would have been sued and jailed to oblivion

I meant if a regular person did crimes of this magnitude, they would have gotten harsher punishment. Which I think these executives also more than deserve

I know what you meant, but do you have a source for your claim?

Nope. I guess I shouldn't have implied it with that certainty. It was more of a horrific repulsion from what the ebay execs did and I felt like they got off too easy
