It’s possible with digital tech, always on mics, and remote work that absolutely every communication within a company could be recorded forever.

Would humanity be better off? Or are people stupider when they are thinking out loud in front of recording devices?

How much do the lawyers deserve to know?

Better to just have a website for anonymous tip offs where you can download a private key and collect a fat reward if it ends up being used for a prosecution.

Or we could do the opposite and have corporate whistleblowers like the boeing ones mysteriously die off while everyone just makes jokes about it.
