No, but it is definitely a solid solution to criminal problems, which is exactly what this is. These are most certainly criminal acts. Why should I not expect criminal activity to be charged as such?

Most criminal activity is done for profit, and that's certainly the case here. For-profit crimes have two solutions. You either make them unprofitable by fining the offender(s) more than they are making from the illegal activity or you give them a free, extended stay at the Gray Bar Motel, courtesy of the US taxpayer. I am more than happy to help foot that bill if necessary.

I'm unclear on something - you've said that these are "clearly" criminal acts. What would the charge be?

Ah, but Corporate officers are immune to prosecution, and simply pay a (small) fine (consider it an indulgence). The Corporate veil uber-alles!
