It's not cheating on his wife that did in the CEO, it's cheating on his wife with an alleged spy while also possibly being involved with chip smuggling.

Also, shagging your subordinates is a big no no in US corporate governance.

The nono is having it plastered publically. If it's an open secret within the industry, people in power don't care because it doesn't affect their power. It just becomes a lever to pull when you decide to oust someone from power.

It's one of those things where it's always going to happen tolerated to a degree, with enforcement being selective both as a pragmatic necessity and as political leverage. It's kind of the western equivalent of tax evasion in China where there's a whole industry that's allowed to exist for wealthy people, the government knows about it, but they'll only crack down if it gets too excessive or when someone steps out of line.
