It's very irresponsible for regulation to allow them to do that. And statistically for us to vote for politics that are not against that kind of behavior. Big companies rarely give a shit about killing people in the process of making money, as long as they are not punished for doing that. (And we, btw, mostly don't give a shit when the people being killed live in other countries, even when the process to do so is far more direct than the 1st world problem that interest us here.) People who used to organize those kind of criminal behaviors used to be held responsible for the consequences, but it is more rare now and the laws in various countries have actually been changed so that people managing companies are far less accountable than before for the illegal and otherwise bad things they order. As for companies being accountable, it is usually in punitive money that is order of magnitude less amount than the extra profit they made in doing their shit, so why would them stop? The risk of the CEO being sent to jail would stop them. Ridiculously small fines against the company, in the astonishingly rare cases where they even actually fined, not so.
