I am a bit surprised. Surely Meta’ senior executives must be paid fairly well. And compared to Meta, OF is a lemonade stand.

Interestingly, small government seems to correlate with more corruption too. I am very much not an expert in this area. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23311886.2021.1910163 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/23311886.2021.1... https://www.hks.harvard.edu/publications/inequality-and-corruption https://www.hks.harvard.edu/publications/inequality-and-corr...
- tgv 4y agoSmall government means little control, so that's quite logical. Criminals rarely argue for better law enforcement.

In the court filing, Fenix also pointed out that plaintiffs have accused Perrella, but in their complaint, plaintiffs say that wire transfers allegedly sent to Perrella were sent to someone with a similar name at “Cristian Peralta Trust.”

- themitigating 4y agoHow?
- sroussey 4y agoYou use their name and an email that looks almost identical to the original persons. Or when wiring, change the spelling or name on your account (create a trust where you have wide latitude on naming that mimics the other persons name). Look at the details of the OF episode that was on here a few days ago.
