Similar to golergka's commentaary (currently) above, I don't think your comparisons are comparable.

Protecting yourself against the (ridiculously) surveilled internet is wildly different to going to the effort of hiding one's responsibility for, or ownership of, a company.

I'd argue there should be a line between openly public knowledge and knowledge available to agencies responsible for prosecuting corporate malfeasance, but the ability to completely hide from responsibility for corporate malfeasance should not be possible.

Intentional cherry-picking:

- I think the Sackler's are still doing "just fine"

- Sam Bankman-Fried should have spent more time speaking to lawyers in the Cayman Islands to upgrade his level of ownership 'protection' (although maybe the real owners did and SBF was a patsy).
