You’re right in that the primary focus of the article was not the outsourced devs being Indian. The issue comes from how people respond to such articles, no matter the article’s intention.
I’m not saying that outsourced devs shouldn’t be held accountable for any faults. The point is that there are different degrees of accountability for all parties involved.
The article only chose to focus on one of these groups, which is fine. What’s not fine is HN comments that seem to not realize this.
No matter the salary or experience or contract, outsourced devs/companies shouldn’t be in a position of power to break critical systems on an airplane. (I’m not saying this is what happened with the Max.)
