Titanic submersible es morte

From what I read, the signal they detected was immediately shared with those leading the search and used to hone in on a search area, but that the sound of the implosion wasn’t determined to be definitive and they continued looking. Should they have done something differently?

From what I understand, acoustic location in the open deep ocean isn't super precise when you're not looking for something (the Navy wasn't looking for the sub when it imploded). So the sound was definitely not determinative. It's like saying they found a piece of red cloth at the bottom of the waterfall and the hiker was wearing a red hoodie . . . is that bit of evidence enough to conclude the hiker died in the river and the search in the woods should be called off? I don't think that's how search and rescue works.

I'm also seeing a lot of criticism that the ongoing search effort gave the families false hope when the Navy knew of an implosion. Have the families said that? I don't think the content of the communications with the families have been made public. Unless someone knows for sure what the families were and were not told (and why) it seems that's just people popping off about things they don't have enough information to comment on.
