Q6. How much influence will the ethics committee actually have? For example, are there commercial and IP clawback provisions if the committee is deemed to be ignored or sidelined?
With Google's army of lawyers I wouldn't count on this as the enforcement mechanism. BUT, this has a chance to get Larry or Sergei involved, which has a chance of succeeding and making a huge difference.
From what I gather, it is chiefly Sergey Brin who is concerned with ethical issues, and his attention is on various Google X projects. Larry Page and Eric Schmidt don't seem to care as much, if at all. That's probably one reason Google has been getting visibly eviller in the last couple of years. Unless Deep Mind is a part of Google X, I would not expect the ethics board to matter.
