A lot of people are implying that people that object should leave the company. The question is, if the people that actually care and push back leave:

1. Will this increase or decrease the incidents? 2. Will we know more or less about these incidents in the future? 3. Will anyone else inside work for or against this happening?

Which way do we want things to go?

I don't mean to say it's clearly this or that. I think it's a genuinely interesting and challenging dilemma. Do I continue working someplace that is involved in something evil but try and provide a voice, push, influence, or, if nothing else, a voice to the outside of the goings on inside, or do I separate myself and work only from the outside?

We can imagine the same for law enforcement, military, defence contractors, government, and any number of other vectors and industries.

Snowden was working from the inside before he leaked what he did. Every single whistleblower was involved first.
