Thanks watch ojo for your work! Very good what you guys do!
Whistleblowers should be put on pedestals as some of the greatest martyrs mankind has to offer. Telling the truth is not traitorous.
Nope, most of the whistleblowers tend to incline more towards personal issues than public and work on self interest. These are good only sometimes , most of the time are idiots.

Ever since Bill Hader inpersonated Julian Assange on SNL, I can’t keep a straight face whenever I see the real deal ROFL
After reading 1984, I cannot express my admiration enough for whistle blowers.
What a coincidence, this popped up on my subscription feed shortly after watching Citizenfour.
How did you guys forget Karen Silkwood and Upton Sinclair?
these people are fucking heroes. wish we have more people like that.
snowden is a true hero who deserves a hero’s welcome, not a condemnation for alerting the world to mass government surveillance on the public.
They are HEROES!
If the people don’t encourage whistle blowers people will fell scared to expose the truth.
If we encourage there will be alot less curruption
I admire all the whistile blowerers with good intentions, speaking up against their former agencies, corporations or gov. agencies. Even if they were on the wrong side, you have to imagine the courage and sacrifice they made. Today’s world needs this kind of people!
These people are the real heros! I wish I have half of their courage.
CITIZENFOUR is a great documentary, definitely worth a watch π
when you speak the truth and try to bring justice,you will always labeled as criminal
gotta give props to them all. It takes a lot of balls to put themselves on the chopping block so the world would know something they shouldn’t. Exposing all the illegal criminal activities that governments and firms and other entities try to hide.
And then you got those people who would call whistleblowers “rats” or “tattle tales”. It takes a lot of courage to point out corruption. Funny how such an honorable trait would somehow be mutated into an insult.
Snitches get stitches
@Kanye East So what are we supposed to do about corruption and evil only revealed by insiders? They just need to keep silent about it? Don’t be a coward.
Thereβs a big difference between snitches and whistleblower
@yeseniagarcia Like?
Or traitors ππππ
Snowden is a hero.
You said it
All of these whistleblowers are heroes of courage of which we need more of.
“These martyrs seek no adoration, no promises of god’s salvation. They kicked the ladder from beneath their feet. They hung the heroes.”
Edward and the wiki leaks guy are still my favourite guys of all time. It is fucked up though that governments from around the world can think of a thousand ways to prosecute you for telling the truth and find no ways to prosecute the perpetrators involved in the leak.
I think my favorite whistleblowers are Ellsberg, Snowden, Felt, and Serpico. I don’t know they’re all on the list but these people need more recognition.
