MH370 satellite logs released, but redactions by Malaysian government will only fuel further conspiracy theories

Malaysian authorities, working with British satellite company Inmarsat, has released 47 pages of satellite logs that were used to track flight MH370 to the southern Indian Ocean. The timing on this release is significant, as Australia today announced that the deep-sea search for flight MH370 has been postponed for three months, pending a complete bathymetric (topographical) map of 60,000 square kilometers of the seabed where MH370 is thought to have crashed. As the search for the missing plane moves into its eleventh week, we yet again have to wonder whether we are looking in the right place or not. With the release of the satellite logs, can we now check if Inmarsat is right about MH370's final resting place?
