Liability is inevitable, so when they seemingly try to "shut it down," remember that the real goal is not only to delay it, but secretly also to shift it.
They offer people money to shield them from accountability, but later, when there is accountability, they will blackmail those same people and throw them under the bus.
If someone lets the authorities bribe them to sell out the safety of future generations, there's nothing they can say to defend themselves when the authorities later say "oh look, we found the guy that sold out the safety of future generations, what shall the punishment be?"
Be ready to help low-ranking criminals betray higher-ranking criminals, not just blindly attack whatever target is put in front of you.
