They don’t mention the conspiracy theory: this vessel was owned by the founder of Autonomy software, which died in the accident.

Ha! The which/who failure makes it sound like the vessel died in the accident.

The same day, the ex vice president of Autonomy software, was killed in a car accident.

And this one sounds like 'the same day' is someone's name, and that person was killed in a car accident. What a weird name -- and I once worked for a guy named Ransom Love, and this one still stands out. Do they shorten the name to 'Sam'?

Some languages depend not on a specific order of words in a sentence and everyone you meet on the internet is not a speaker of native English.

Rules:

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
