alt Hacker NewsWhat % of META (shares) are owned by Meta Platforms Inc.?
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for e.g. Zuckerberg personally to be ordered to hand over all his shares as any given penalty, but as stated what you describe sounds like a way to avoid paying a penalty.
Meta Platforms Inc. can create shares out of thin air.
Diluting existing shareholders by 10% would send a much stronger message than whatever's happening now.
