- ameister14 3y agoYes. There are statutory protections for whistleblowers, as well: https://www.sec.gov/whistleblower/retaliation https://www.sec.gov/whistleblower/retaliation
- justinclift 3y agoI guess the real question is if they're generally effective? For comparison, Australia theoretically has protections for whistleblowers. But it's unfortunately common for whistleblowers in practice to get royally shafted, have their life destroyed, (etc). :( * https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-03-27/richard-boyle-case-goes-to-trial-after-immunity-defence-fails/102148790 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-03-27/richard-boyle-case-go... * https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-04-13/trial-date-for-afghanistan-alleged-whistleblower/102218334 https://www.abc.net.au/news/2023-04-13/trial-date-for-afghan...
