It doesn't matter that you didn't want to know -- all the people whose knowing of this matters... know, they all know. If you wanted the whistleblower to avoid reprisals by having his identity kept secret, it's too late.
- sangnoir 6y agoI clearly stated my 2 concerns. The chilling-effect (by sending a message to would-be whistleblowers that they'd be tarred and feathered) as well as a "Lone-wolf" taking matters into their own hands, as it were. I have no control what you (or others) propagate, as is your right - but I will not be part of it. I understand why Facebook, Wikipedia and others won't either (they too, have 1A rights).
- cryptonector 6y agoNonsense. Being a whistleblower requires running some risks. It's a necessity. You can't really blow the whistle on crimes etc. without ever going public -- at some point there might be a trial and you'd have to testify, else it's not a proper trial. And again, horse, barn, door. It's gone. It ain't coming back.
