Russia has declared the English-language newspaper The Moscow Times an “undesirable organization.” Cooperating with the outlet can entail sentences of up to five years in prison
The Russian Prosecutor General’s Office on Wednesday banned the online newspaper The Moscow Times.
The website was blocked in Russia for allegedly discrediting the country’s military shortly after the start of Kremlin-backed invasion of Ukraine.
So this actually made me think, since corporations and organizations are seen as people in the US, could they be prosecuted and if found guilty the people identified in helping commit the crime serve the punishment a private citizen would have gotten for committing the sams crime?
Like here it’s an absolute sham, but charging organizations for crimes committed in their name sounds like a pretty easy way to avoid the untangling of having to actually identify the specific executive responsible and prosecute only them when plenty of other people had to be knowing willing complicits in the whole deal for most things to get much further than some nepo baby’s vision board.
