    1. Important investigative documentary about the Boeing 737 Max. Highly recommended. Really makes evident the importance of encouraging and protecting whistleblowers. And how the struggle to appease shareholders can be a vector for disaster. netflix.com/us/title/81272421?s=i&trkid=13747225&vlang=en&clip=81571086

    Just finished watching. It's horrific. If Boeing hadn't consciously taken shortcuts, acted deceitfully and "jedi-mind-tricked" regulators (an actual phrase used in an email), those crashes would not have happened and all those people would not have died in those crashes. 😢

      In January 2021, the U.S. Department of Justice charged Boeing with criminal conspiracy to defraud the FAA. Boeing agreed to pay 2.5 billion dollars in fines and compensation. This arrangement has allowed Boeing to avoid criminal prosecution.
