Yes, that would be interesting to investigate, but as it already is, it's obvious there is some sort of state actor involved. One might spend such a sum on luxuries, but when it's something that might have impact, but doesn't have obvious returns, it's psychologically very hard to justify. If I had say 50 mil and I considered free speech the highest value and Assange was my hero, I still won't do it 🤷
If I have much more than that, I'm already affiliated with one state or the other.
