That wasn't the donors' doing at all, though. If anything it was an illustration of the powerlessness of the donors and the non-profit structure without the force of law backing it up.

    Did they donate, or did they buy equity in the for-profit arm? I thought it was the latter, and that Azure credits were part of that deal?
