Sounds like a horrible idea since the insurance pool is limited to the size of the ship. Hopefully at least it’s averaged by value rather than number of containers so that if someone is shipping corn and a container of iPhones gets jettisoned they don’t get a bill for their life savings.

At the very high end from the huge companies like Apple, Microsoft, Spotify, Adobe, Autodesk, etc. the desktop apps are better.
