- lyndonh 13y agoIt would never work. No whistleblower was ever thanked or benefitted from their actions. The only way to survive as a whistleblower is to be anonymous, cover your tracks, leave the organisation, leak credible information with evidence to the right people who will do the right thing with it. Protect your identity at all times.

- dragonwriter 13y ago> We need a whistleblower law [...] that is embedded in the consitution that protects people from speaking out. Already got one: Congress shall make no law [...] abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the Government for a redress of grievances What we lack, if anything, is a public willing to hold the government accountable to the existing rule "embedded in the Constitution". Adding more words to the Constitution won't fix that.
