    i wasn’t insinuating that all unfree labor on ships is stowaways that have been caught, rather that contingents of the laborforce are not allowed to exercise rights they should have through legal trickery. places go along with it even if their local laws should facilitate a more robust set of rights.

      Oh okay then I misunderstood you, my bad! Yeah you’re completely correct, the conditions on board are horrible and exploitative, especially for workers from the global south
