I don't understand your point. I was responding to this:
Qwest CEO Joseph Nacchio who resisted NSA spying is out of prison
Nacchio's imprisonment has nothing to do with NSA spying; it has to do with his efforts to bilk Qwest shareholders out of their money. Those efforts are well-documented.
Further.. where is the motive?? So they guy scams everyone and their dog out of 50MM and doesn't care about shareholders and is evil to the core.. but yet disagrees to play along with some government agency that would put a spy trap in his servers?
If anything this could probably somehow helped him along the lines of some secret plea bargain.
I'm not sure what motive you're asking about. His motive for running a pump-and-dump scam with Qwest's stock was almost certainly straightforward: to enrich himself and his family.
The implication, as I'm sure you've heard, is that the stock drop was due in part to the canceled government contracts, and/or that Nacchio was investigated and prosecuted for somewhat common behavior because of Qwest's refusal to spy.
