What FTC lmao, they're a Finnish company registered in Estonia. Billionaires don't get fast tracked court cases here. They'll move to some other country long before anything happens.

    Wouldn’t those countries have more strict regulations than the US? Maybe Finland more than Estonia?

    Courts move at snails pace usually. Years for such a thing in Estonia at least. Have to prove fraud and all that.

    For debts it's possible to accelerate things, but the key here is that Donut Labs is the debtor, not Mark. He himself will only be liable when fraud is proven.
