The actual title is "Former Netflix Executive Sentenced To 30 Months For Bribes And Kickbacks From Netflix Vendors ". Mike left Netflix in 2014 and joined Yahoo and CIO for a moment before this all came out and Meyer put him on leave.
Why risk this even? Surely, he's making much more than 700K as an exec in the first place.
I can't tell how much of it is random people projecting their cynicism onto the business world, or if it's people who have been part of bribery/kickback schemes themselves trying to normalize the behavior online.
Either way, cases like this should make it clear that the behavior is not a good idea.

Is what they did illegal too? Presumably with zero chance of being charged. I haven't fully groked the limits of 'fraud' and 'money laundering' here in the US. These typically feel like they should be civil breach of fiduciary duty type cases.

Now this is what we need to see to effect change in corporate behavior.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
It wasn't intentional, the headline was too long to fit.
That makes sense, haha. That probably is the word I would have removed as well in that case. :)
