Another video showing the ship just prior to the collision. Shows electric power outage and recovery, hard turn to starboard, second power outage, and collision.
This may get me labeled a conspiracy nut, but notice the first power outage, then immediately upon being restored, the ship takes a hard turn to starboard, then the second power outage, restoration, and collision. That looks to me like the crew realized they were being hacked and killed the electric power in an effort to stop the hack. When the power was restored, the hacker had to make a hard turn to keep the ship on its collision course.
I couldn't see a state actor doing something like this unless it was in the final preparation for war. In that case I'd think they wouldn't tip their hand until the pieces are in place for a whole lot of strategic targets to be hit at the same time.
