I have been very happy with the GoPro underwater, although used for only one dive trip so far. This is a shark video I took in Roatan with nothing but the red filter, since they wouldn't let us use lights. Unfortunately I forgot to remove the trapped air bubbles under the filter, but the video still came out very well.

I have a longer duration movie that has a lot of footage taken by me with the GoPro and my friend with a JVC camcorder. What's cool there is you really can't discern what he took versus what I took - the quality is pretty much the same I'm showing that movie to our dive club tomorrow night and can post the link after that. Here's a trailer if you want to sneak peek - mixed clips between mine and my friend here too: http://youtu.be/hGqwqgA5inM?hd=1
Here's a topside video of our zipline adventure too, for underwater vs topside compare:

I am surprised that no one seems worried about that behavior.

GoPro has come a long way in quality of the their u/w product. And its in a price point that people can afford for many purposes. However they should NEVER promote riding or touching of wildlife especially with a Tiger Shark. And yes there are plenty of animals that get touched or handled by DM's and divers alike which does not make it right but they usually are limited to a geographical region. And its not captured on film promoting the behavior while trying to sell another product.
I am surprised that no one seems worried about that behavior.
I completely agree with you on this. Unfortunately GoPro does promote this type of behavior.
