Not shocked at all that a billionaire would care about anyone stranded.

That is a legal requirement of maritime law here... they could definitely sue

I mean yeah, but its the captains responsibility, not Zuccs. Even it Zucc told the captain to ignore it, the captain has the highest authority and unless he was forced to ignore it at gunpoint it would be his fault.

"$500,000 a year told me I wasn't able to help those bystanders. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a lawyer to pay with my boss's money"

Yeah it's hard to empathise with humans if your soul was traded years ago for the ability to spread digital misery to the world.

My guess is he didn't have pervert glasses on so he couldn't record the rescue and post it online. So what's the point...
