Yup. It's a few hours of online training usually, and anyone involved in human subjects research has to take it every few years. I just did mine recently. It's really no big deal, but I'm sure he'll make it seem like some horrific martyrdom to be required to take it.
Exactly. Such waivers can be granted if the research requires deception. The IRB decides if the deception represents undue potential harm to human subjects and, if it doesn't, usually requires a post-study debriefing of the deceived subjects.

We wouldn't be having this conversation if it wasn't Peter, and it wasn't embarassing. For ex: Squishy Studies Y academic attends protest, claims to be part of Z group (trans, say, for solidarity) reports on human interaction results in editorial page. Not experiment. Looks same.

"We wouldn't be having this conversation if it wasn't Peter" We would! This is not the only time someone has run into IRB issues in history.
