    So a company provides infinite protection?

    “I didn’t murder that man, the company did.”

    “The company paid individual X to murder them, not me.”

    No, that’s ridiculous.

    There is a line you can cross. Musk has crossed that line. Is it exactly written, if your name is Elon Musk and you own companies X, Y, & Z, and you perform actions A, B, C, you I’ll be fined in this exact way? No. There is a grey area, and a group within the EU is allowed to make a more specific determination.

    And do you know who agreed to these rules? Elon Musk. He chose to do business in the EU. He agreed to their rules.
