Sure they are just going to get up and walk right out of that airplane. How high were they?

Generally the on-demand videos are the uncensored version -- I watched Borat unedited on a portable player on Alaska.

However, the general-consumption videos would normally be the "airline" version.

No, but I am questioning the attitude of this passenger...they should realize that if something objectionable to them is on the screen, they have the option of removing themselves from being exposed to it, rather than insist it be turned off.

In a movie theater, they can get up and leave. On an airplane, they can change their audio channel and just stop watching the screen - why force the change on other people?

The FA should have told the customer to find an alternative form of entertainment and left it at that.
