Don't care about that, just send him an email explaining this all,
writing it as easy and self-explaining to read as possible. Make him do
the decision - you can tell him your opinion, but make sure it's his
call to decide. If you ask from him, you're doing it right, making sure
you're not violating (new) company policies yourself. And do it via
email to make sure it's written down, not just spoken.

Follow these two steps and you are fine:
Step 1: save your own ass properly
Step 2: be profitable for the company
