I wish you hadn’t pulled the Balaji case into your argument. Personally, I find it ludicrous that Altman would hire a hitman to off a copyright whistleblower. Even if one gets past the insane risk of hiring a hitman, and the deep criminal connections required, it would be totally ineffective. He already blew the whistle, and his testimony would be irrelevant since all the evidence persists in disk and in logs.
