I read the company skipped a load of safety and redundancy checks. Thats crazy...if it's true. Cutting corners to save a few bucks .

I'm not surprised due the greed that exists in the world but this should require the same level of regulation as a plane or a rocket . Not some metal cylinder with a $30 controller duct taped inside it.

So, they made their ~~sea~~bed and now lie on it?

It's hard to find empathy for those guys.

Hopefully the company goes out of business and there is someone held accountable but I won't hold my breath. Its sad for the families all the same.

Now they get to organize dives to view the wreckage of the Titan. Twice the business!
