I'm all for corporate death penalty.

In my mind, incarceration would be a freeze on all their assets and business operations for a fixed period of time. Execution would mean full liquidation as though they were bankrupt, all their IPs become public domain, like you mention. Perhaps with such equality, owners of corporations would no longer wish them to be considered people.

I imagine a C-suite that caused either of these outcomes wouldn't be popular with the investment class since it would cost them meaningful amounts of money. A ban might not even be nessicary.

Thats a good start.

I think more likely it will just go away eventually like MySpace.
