I am curious, what would be the point of killing him besides payback?
Like the info is out there now, but I'd bet my kidney it won't lead to anything, no regulations or fines or nothing, if anything killing him just leads to more attention to this which is anything increases the chances the neolib establishment will feel compelled to at least pretend to do something about it.
I've honestly wondered this about a lot of things. Like I sometimes wonder why they bothered killing Epstein, he could have shown video of Trump and Clinton in the act at trial and it's not like it would have resulted in either of them going to jail. I doubt Trump would have even lost any support, the two of them might as well have just admitted they fucked kids, it's not like it matters. Let the piggy squeal nobody can do anything about it.
My assumption would be that the company has a lot of contractual commitments with other companies. They could be buried in lawsuits or contracts they have could become void.
Yeah just because the US government's regulatory enforcement is neutered doesn't mean United Airlines lawyers can't pounce on breaches of contract and extract shitloads of money
The biggest one would be sales that they've made but not yet fulfilled becoming void due to potential breaches of contract I assume. Or everyone with existing sold planes wanting money back.
Yeah but why would it matter, a dude could leak that they fuel the jet with babies the CEO personally strangled to death and nothing would happen. I'm surprised corporations don't even bother with hiding this shit anymore, might as well just publish it every fiscal quarter.
The benefits to them of killing whistleblowers far outweighs the negatives.
It instills fear in anyone internally who might want to leak secrets and do you economic harm. Do not fuck with us or we will kill you.
It shows every company, cop, and organization that you're a strong company, and will not be fucked with.
Also I don't think you realize just how harmful leaks can be, either economically, legally, or image-wise. Some might seem harmless economically, but there are other assets besides money.
too big to fail... it's like when pg&e was the cause of a majority of those fires in CA that killed so many people.. instead of paying up they just declared bankruptcy, and CA residents had to pay to bail them out, then they made $2 billion in profit but are too poor to pay back the bailout, as they raise the rate for gas & electricity by over 20% in mere months
once you capture a market you're invincible to consequences
I know right, it's like they are scared to really test the limits of their power. I think they could bring back the right to bed your wife on your wedding night and still nothing would happen.
Last week, he gave a formal deposition in which he was questioned by Boeing's lawyers, before being cross-examined by his own counsel.
He had been due to undergo further questioning on Saturday. When he did not appear, enquiries were made at his hotel.

It's to instill terror. It sets an example to others that might come forwards with more.
There are a lot of workers who will know more about this but every single one of them will be wary that saying anything will result in this now.
But whistleblowers don't ever accomplish anything these days, let them blow away.

As a warning to any other would-be whistleblowers is my first guess, kinda like what they did to Karen Silkwood.

What the fuck

Thats why
Okay that makes a bit more sense, but still
sometimes i don't think the geriatric system we live under has quite caught up to the "post-truth" era (that said system ironically created)
