Well stated. I do not see how prosecuting individuals can be a bad thing. There _must_ be a critical point of individual prosecutions becoming commonplace enough before engineers being forced to play dirty say "Fuck you motherfucker" and report such behaviour to HR or to higher ups etc.

This is the sort of area where independent media support functional democracies. The engineer goes to a reporter. The reporter keeps the engineer's identify secret. If and when the police get serious about a prosecution, the engineer can then identify himself to authorities. Should the authorities decide not to investigate after reading the media reports (a very common situation) then the engineer's identity remain a secret held by the reporter. But this all breaks down these days when authorities simply shout 'fake news' and ignore media reports.
