This is a gross misrepresentation of the ruling. Elon's brother being on the board was little more than a footnote because he wasn't involved in the relevant decision. I don't think the shareholders being aware of that or not was even a footnote.

The part of the board that did participate in the relevant decisions (not including Elon or his brother) being beholden to Elon, while holding themselves out as independent, was a major factor.

It's a perfectly decent representation, if you're used to reading judgements (rulings are in motion practice, the outcome is a judgement) and understand how to read between the lines.
