MH370 likely had systems that enable tracking deliberately disabled by someone in the cockpit (or they all failed at the same time). That's not part of the threat model for good reasons.
seems quite addressable if that was the case? just don't let humans disable tracking, what's a sane use case for that anyway?
Better question is what has been done to prevent the next MH370 and I bet the answer is nothing much, it took a back burner once the story was out of the headlines. There are only a thousand reasons aircraft operators might want to know where their planes are and if there are any issues. I’m sure that the gps position and black box data could be streamed over radio and/or satellite.
Feel like if we believe this was a pilot suicide then it would also be important to try to address that - though I'm not sure how unless we fully automated (and people liked that). There has been a German and Chinese flight since with 100+ fatalities where this happened. Given how few crashes there are on commercial flights its one of the biggest risk factors today.
I would have said the 787 lithium battery risk was more concerning personally. Or the 737 Max problem.

According to experts hired by NBC news, the audio between the pilots and ATC were edited: https://www.nbcnews.com/storyline/missing-jet/missing-jet-re... For whatever reason, this doesn't seem to be widely discussed.
I try to think positively. It successfully landed on the beach in North Sentinel Island, where all the passengers and the crew still live happy lives away from these pesky newfangled life we call civilization. edit: satellite data needs to be bogus though, so my theory makes perfect sense
Civilization can be pesky until someone falls and needs antibiotics to prevent sepsis.

2) name the AirTag “Boeing 777”
3) you have your personal Boeing in Find My to show off
This is the crux/TL;DR: "Perhaps the most compelling reason to believe that Zaharie hijacked his own plane is its simplicity. It’s the only explanation that doesn’t rely on a series of independently improbable events: given a desire to do it, everything else falls into place as a reasonable part of the plan. In fact, from the timing of the transponder failure to the specific locations of the turns to the flight path…
The part where he had flown the route in a simulator is compelling as well. What a long article though
