    This isn’t even a reaction to known allegations—apparently he’s just anticipating potential future trouble:

    the reason that Donaldson hired the flashy lawyer is to conduct an internal audit of his company, the likes of which has recently come under fire as the result of various scandals.

      IIRC there was significant backlash over the Squid Games clone, or what was supposed to be. This is probably a wise decision.

      If you wait until you need a lawyer, you waited too long.
