At the time of the experiment, there isn't really such a thing as the ethics of social psychology research. Strict, formal ethics rules appeared after this.

- saghm 3y agoSure, but given that he refers to 47 years having passed since the experiment, I'd expect he's well aware of the ethics that have evolved since then. It wouldn't be hard for him to admit that in the light of current ethics, the experiment probably wouldn't fly, but instead he doubles down and insists that the experiment was both ethical and correct, which is a pretty terrible take.
