There have been several articles recently about proxies and other applications that do convenience editing of web content, maybe breaking a "social contract".
This looks like another example. I wonder if content producers have any issues with this kind of service. Or does reaching a larger audience justify "editing for size" changes?
Like you say, I used to think it was about the safety of the crews, and that they were being treated with disproportionate concern.
But I have since changed my view and believe that it is much more about the fear of failure, and that what is being risked are the "hopes of a nation".
I believe that if you discover that your employer is:
unethically exploiting employees
conducting business in an illegal manner
killing people in the course of business
about to kill people in the course of business
conducting business in a non-competitive, monopolistic fashion
you are morally bound to speak out about it, on your blog, to the press and
to whomever will listen. (If your employer is a Chinese mining company, you
should just quit your job and become a full-time blogger.)
