It's about plausible deniability, nothing more, really.

And it's not much different from huge companies outsourcing their work to companies managing sweatshops or relying on child labor. They can distance themselves from it if shit hits the fan, but still benefit from, well, slavery.

In the absence of direct responsibility, it's my view that the CEO should be (made) legally and personally responsible for decisions including outsourcing child slavery.
