Absolutely WILD that this happened to the CEO of a $550+ billion company. People complain about how CEOs get such security but this goes to show it might be deserved.
Esp. since this appears to be a targetted hit I mean I am stunned.
They've been paying a lot of bitcoin in a ransomware attack. Since it sounds like the gunner got away, wonder if it was a professional with a gang (especially if UHC has stopped those payments). Figure a disgruntled person who didn't get coverage wouldn't have run, since they'd consider themselves a martyr (and realistically might not have long to live).
I literally spent 90 minutes on the phone yesterday (mostly on hold) with an insurance company trying to get a peer to peer approved for a patient to get rehab (with no resolution). I wanted to kill someone but this is a little much...
Insurance companies will always make it slow so that you decide to just stop and pay for it yourself. As long as you can bypass all their stupid shit, you will get approved.
TBH, I'm not shocked. These people have so much power (waaay too much) no wonder he developed few grave enemies over time... Now, I'm waiting for the Netflix movie to come out next year about it...lol
Yeah, and this could be the reason to tip that see-saw. THEY are looking for any reason to do surveillance on anything they can. Please don’t suggest it to them.
come on, the dark overlords have already been given plenty of such advice multiple times. also, did the CEO actually die, or is that an incident for his retirement bonus? never let curiosity go to waste #bitcointhings.
edit...: hmmm, i may have the wrong details. there are evidently two companies. UnitedHealth (CEO Andrew Witty) and UnitedHealthcare (CEO Brian Thompson). UnitedHealth is the one that got cybered. UnitedHealthcare was https://x.com/g0lden8ge/status/1864311725530517558 thing?
additional context on this... UHC was under a ransomware attack for several months earlier this year. something like 100million customers had their data breached.

The ransomware attack and data breach at Change Healthcare stands as the largest known digital theft of U.S. medical records, and one of the biggest data breaches in living history. The ramifications for the millions of Americans whose private medical information was irretrievably stolen are likely to be life lasting.
That’s what movies get wrong: your enemies won’t wait to face you head-on or offer you a chance for last words—they’ll shoot you in the back the moment they get the opportunity.
Of course, New York City!!! A big insurance company, in the city of the banksters after contretemps at the company. It could be anybody, couldn’t it. He might have stumbled over a stone that was dark, or anyone else. The ELite are merciless.

We
havehad our health insurance through them. I also have two friends that work high up in the org.Other than some personal vendetta, I wonder why he would be killed.
I had my health coverage through them also. Really shocking
Yeah, the healthcare services are becoming more expensive, and do less.
Its shocking.
i read he was on his way to the quarterly investor meeting.
seems like that could have had something to do with it. or a jealous spouse.
Or a disgruntled customer

wonder if you could send them to Crowdhealth?
wouldn't help for the immediate issue, but ... cash pay is the only way to play

seeing a lot of people suggesting this. hard to know...
one thing's for sure, nobody thinks the US medical establishment is doing it "right"
Probably a disgruntled customer that got completely fucked by their insurance one too many times.
I'm not condoning what happened at all, but as someone who's spent countless hours on the phone fighting with these assholes, I kinda get it.
Amateurs and patsies shoot for shit late in the day and get caught within minutes.
Professionals hit center mass first thing in the morning and have a getaway plan.
What did he know?
TBH, I'm not shocked. These people have so much power (waaay too much) no wonder he developed few grave enemies over time...

Are we sure the cause of death isn’t covid or mRNA
Shocking. Clearly targeted. The guy wore a mask and had a bike in the alley to get away.
Crazy.
inb4 "all bikes should be tracked so they can't be used as getaway devices"
Someone will suggest that.

Its crazy how assassinations still happen in this day and age.
Human society is as savage as ever. We just fake it better now.
You would think there were more creative or sophisticated ways of assassinating people.

Cause of death was ruled a baseless conspiracy theory

Very targeted assassination
Was Boeing involved? I am half kidding
Wild. Yet another thing I would never have expected on my 2024 Bingo card.
Reminds me of the film “The East,”
Wild. Fiat frustration? So sad. Sending prayers to all involved
Can't say I'm upset by the news.
If people are truly upset about health insurance they should point their guns at Obama
Especially people who cling to guns and religion
Crazy
