What a stupid waste of time and resources.

The complaint does not allege that the Logitech wireless controller, the carbon fiber construction, Titan’s innovative porthole, or the use of disparate materials with differing expansion/compression coefficients—four main areas of criticism—were individually responsible for the sub’s implosion. But it does suggest that these systems could have together contributed to a “daisy chain of failures of multiple improperly designed or constructed parts or systems.”

This is such a frivolous lawsuit. Logitech is going to crush them if they even have to go to trial.

The article doesn’t say they’re suing Logitech.

It’s using the fact that it was a wireless controller used over Bluetooth as part of the evidence that they created a bunch of unnecessary points of failure.

I think Logitech should take responsibility and give them a $30 voucher

I laughed way too hard at that. Bravo.

Question. Who are they actually suing? Didn’t the bozo die along with everyone else? So who would hold responsibility?

The company itself (oceangate) still exists. The estate of Stockton Rush is also named in the suit.

It appears they are suing OceanGate, the company that made the submarine. The use of cheap, consumer grade hardware for critical functions (literally controlling the sub) is one of their criticisms.
