Who could’ve guessed that firing the department that takes care of copyright infringements had repercussions.

I wonder if certain people could be held legally accountable for the reckless negligence that allowed these things to happen.

Probably not. The grift makes you almost immune to the law, if not entirely so. And, even if you aren’t, you’ve got basically infinite money and stooges to delay the law long enough that it doesn’t matter.

That’s sort of the whole point of corporations, that the law views them as their own entity which can be held culpable for its own actions, as opposed to the people running the corporation.

Yeah, and this case, it should. The thing I have some issue withis that corps usually don’t just create a situation with limited financial liability, but with limited criminal liability.
In my world, this is fine, you get sued, company pays. But if you poison a river, and the decisionmakers are at least criminally negligent like the US train company that poisoned a town, they should go to jail.
