A SpaceX engineer's dark web insider trading sparks an SEC first

If the SEC is going to start caring about insider trading they should definitely take a look at what the members of the US congress did at the start of the sars-cov-2 pandemic.

What this looks like to me is just the SEC with it's well known hate for SpaceX looking to hurt them any way they can.

Maybe they assume SEC hated Elon, and therefore SpaceX too? Either way, citation needed

Covid-19 is not a corporation, so the notion of "insider trading of non-public corporate information" makes zero sense.

Insider Trading isn't some vague catch-all for non-public information. It has a specific meaning that relates to publicly held corporations.

Sounds like you need to catch up to date on modern law. The STOCK Act passed in 2012 makes this "insider trading".
