Kashmir Hill: Meta classed Zuckerberg as a 'researcher' for a $355M tax break

Hill highlights a side detail from the NYT investigation: Meta claimed Mark Zuckerberg as a 'researcher' to get a $355 million tax break on his $4.1 billion of stock-based compensation. (A quoted passage in the story, per @iethics, says this relates to 2013 stock-option exercises and is already in a dispute with the IRS.)

And this is almost an aside in the story, but also absolutely bonkers. Meta claimed Zuck as a "researcher" to get a $355 million tax break on his $4.1 billion stock-based compensation.
