Might be easier to just jail the employees with real decision making authority. Most companies I know that is a very small subset, most everyone else is just supposed to do what they're told.

I am not sure "I was just following orders" is a great defense to keep you out of jail.
I don't disagree, but have noticed that the American justice system seems to obsess on jailing/punishing the people following the orders and completely ignores or treats very gently the people making the decisions and giving those orders.

No rules for the rich and powerful, draconian rules for everyone else.
