It is INCREDIBLY damning that our society has regressed to the point that it doesn't recognize this as a bullshit marketing move to invite regulatory capture and essentially bail these unprofitable companies out.

This article is a textbook case of accepting the framing of something by bullshitters and running with it before thinking "why am I breathlessly being told this over and over again? Could there be another $$$ motive here?".

I'm kind of surprised that this made the news in Greece, unlike the other 128 times something very similar happened. I wonder if anthropic marketing is pushing the story harder than usual, or if it's the opposite and they're asleep on the wheel or simply don't think there's anything to gain from trying to contain such stories anymore.
