Im trying to understand this statement:
"Today I'm going to talk about how to fly safely in Retribution! We are adding a couple of new features to ensure that, when you inevitably lose your ship in a very silly way, it is very definitely 100% your fault."
How is my ship protected from loss in the cases of a disconnect, client freeze or a ""the socket was closed" error? None of those are my fault, so based on the above statement I assume from now on none of those will result in the loss of a ship. How is that done?

Canflippers are already screwed by Crimewatch 2.0 as it will become legal to steal from a suspect's can. Fortunately the safety switches do nothing to prevent fools from shooting at ninjas or canflippers. If anything they'll just feel more protected by the reassuring green light. "Safety's on, so nothing I do can hurt me!" 
The trick is the can flipper needs to make his can BEFORE becoming a suspect. That way it is not a "free to take" can.

Scenario 1;
Im a high sec mission runner, im undocking and warping to the site to shoot NPCs. Do i need to set my safety to at least YELLOW to allow me to fire at the mission NPCs (as this generates a suspect flag)
Scenario 2;
Im a high sec incursion runner, im in a site. As they are concord sanctioned hostiles do i need to have my safety set to at least YELLOW to allow me to fire at Sansha.
As a general rule im very happy with this change, i was a victim of the typical can baiting as a new player when i first started, however as the new players will be killing NPC rats they will likely have their safeties set to yellow at least. This will not prevent them opening a can baiters can as this only generates a suspect flag (from memory)
Can i anyone say 100% the answers to the above
You can shoot rats, mission rats, and incursion rats with the safety set to green. You can also assist anyone (rep them, etc) as long as they are not a suspect or a criminal with the safety set to green.
