I don't understand how this kind of deal is even legally allowed? This is clearly against the Shareholders' interests to overpay the fine in order to protect the personal interests of some top FB executives.


It is not, but the FTC is the entity enforcing that. This is corruption, pure and simple.


Another thread mentioned that as a figurehead of Facebook, Zucc being named in this could conceivably lead to bad outcomes for shareholders via bad press.

My question is, if he was named would that lead to an investigation of his personal actions and dealings becoming public? If visibility into internal workings of the CEO is bad for shareholders then that's the way it ought to be I feel.
