It is central that you do not involve any American citizens in the board of directors too.

@vruz@mstdn.social The board of the 501c3 does not have any legal power over the German entity which holds all the assets. This is a concern I've already had in mind.

@Gargron@mastodon.social

I can obviously imagine the concern has crossed your mind, but the idea that the German legal system can stop an insider attack seems not very well thought out.

@vruz@mstdn.social I'll repeat, separate entity. They're not "inside"--except as trusted advisors and mentors.
