For a more academic point of view, check the video series by Anthony Pym on the same topic. He gave a talk on the ethics of translators at the conference Profession, Identity and Status Translators and Interpreters as an Occupational Group (March 15-19-09, Tel Aviv University & Bar Ilan University). The focus was on Intervention.
