How about making them such a high percentage that it would genuinely impact their bottom line and not a measly amount calculated as "cost of doing business"

DO IT!

Less considering more doing

Do it. The crimes are almost entirely by him personally, and had unprecedented damage. He should be responsible with all his money - a Twitter-sized blow would be a slap on the wrist as the platform is worth just $5B or thereabouts.

Do it if you're bad

It's finally time to hold the people hiding behind the companies accountable!!

woohoo!

and this is why we dont fuck with the chinese wall

break his ability to finance the orange felon

WOW. That's interesting. Kinda brilliant if it works. Wouldn't work in the US, unfortunately.

fine the fucker for 20% of his net "worth", that should give him some pause

That would be extra funny, considering at least some motivation behind his initially bidding on Twitter, was to cash out his absurdly overvalued Tesla stock, without causing it to crash.

Clearly he signed that initial Delaware contract while he was still riding high on mania, but still, his desire to convert his overpriced Tesla stock played no small part. The remaining rationale was mostly drug-induced psychosis, but I digress.

So, calculating fines based on his overpriced assets, forcing him to sell off a bunch of those shitty assets, and risking their price falling closer to their true worth, would be hilarious.

It's also why I am skeptical that they'll do it, or at least I'm skeptical they'll do it in a way that would trigger a domino effect, or market contagion.
