ASKED TO DO SOMETHING ILLEGAL AT WORK? HERE'S WHAT THESE SOFTWARE ENGINEERS DID

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Nishad Singh had confirmation that something illegal was happening at FTX, but he stayed, and now he is facing up to 75 years in jail. A senior engineering member at Pollen is now at the mercy of the UK police with what could be a potential wire fraud case after being asked to run a script that double-charged customers (and then doing so). The Director of Engineering at Frank, a student loan startup, flat out refused to create a fake set of data to pump up customer numbers. Their refusal is what makes them the only example on this list that is totally legally safe.
