Ok but, people aren't talking about drinking the sea water, are they? It's about eating fish and sea vegetables that are living/growing in it. Do we know what the effect of eating these foods will be?

A fish will be consuming a lot more than a litre of water over its lifespan.

Edit: You could answer my question instead of downvoting me...

I'm sure they'd let you drink some of you want. Seems much less safe to me and I'm not sure you could drink enough to make a difference, at least as far as the fish are concerned.

I'm not sure what you're saying, and if this is a joke, I don't get it 😆
