Couldn't you say this has already happened with e.g. Snowden?
- Aloha 7y agoDid Snowden try to go they official channels? I don't think he did, Snowden (mostly rightly) decided to bypass the existing reporting systems.

I believe he was deterred from pursuing action through official channels after seeing how William Binney and other whistleblowers were treated.
