I think most of the whistles to be blown are like paper cuts, nobody's going to sacrifice their job over one papercut but nobody is singularly responsible for them all either. The threshold for something happening if a whistle were blown is very different to my standards too - I wouldn't leave security issues to rot on the backlog, I wouldn't lubricate easy and unlimited spending in a child's app, but a lot has to happen for a company to be accountable for these things.

No industry seems to have a good culture that supports whistle blowing
