And is everyone, or should everyone, be willing to risk that fat salary, cushy job, benefits for their principles if it means risking the quality of life for their family?
Do any of them support a sick kid, spouse, parent? Any of them send money home?
All I'm saying is that some of them might not be in a situation in which they could, on a whim, risk getting fired. And we shouldn't blame them because the fix for that is not on their hands.

Google engineers are not special. Everyone has a situation, and family, and bills. Everyone has a parent who will die one day. Everyone hits hard times. Everyone faces tests of character at inopportune times. Very few of those people are making $300k a year tho, and nonetheless making the rightethical choices every day. Why can't Google engineers?
That's why I said standing up for your principles is difficult. If it were easy, everyone would do it.
