Laurasia:

It also makes you wonder how he can kill his own Death Eaters, eg. 
Regulus Black. I would think that if their lives were bound together 
Voldemort wouldn't be able to risk killing so many of them, and 
quite casually too. Like the way he casually comments at his 
Rebirthday Party that "the one who has left him forever" will be 
killed, of course. Maybe Voldemort can remove the mark when he 
chooses to and break the death sharing, however Regulus was not 
killed personally by Voldemort.

We might also assume the inverse relationship- that if all of 
Voldemort's Death Eaters are killed, he too dies.

This idea also makes you wonder if any of them we forced to bear the 
mark and after realising that their lives were bound to Voldemort's 
they *had* to help him.
