"#OceanGate is the ultimate result of the Zuckerbergian '#MoveFastAndBreakThings' mantra — the idea that if you’re not breaking things, you’re not moving fast enough, and that speed of delivery and execution is a worthwhile trade for some sort of destruction."

Broken Things

Years before OceanGate’s Titan submersible imploded, killing five people in the process, a former employee filed a counterclaim alleging that the company fired him for raising concerns about the vehicle's safety. In addition to terminating the plaintiff (David Lochridge, the former Director of Marine Operations for the company), OceanGate filed a civil suit claiming he breached the terms of his contract and misappropriated trade secrets. His crime? Allegedly discussing confidential information with America’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) — the division of the Federal government that exists to ensure safe working conditions.
