By contrast, the owners of the company could easily have voted against the management slate and/or sold the stock as soon as mainstream media started reporting on what was happening with books in the iStore.

So, here's my modest proposal: A night in jail for every company owner AKA stockholder. Given how broadly Apple stock is held, I guess you guys will mostly have to sleep on the floor.

Somewhere there must be computerized records showing which stockholders had voted against the management slate. That's a reasonable defense. But all you other owners who stood by, doing nothing, while evil was done in your name -- prepare to be spanked.
I call top bunk.
