Assignment:
Part A: Here is a dictionary definition of the word “loyal”:
giving or showing firm and constant support or allegiance to a person or institution.
Do employees owe a duty of loyalty to the companies that employ them, or to companies that have at one time employed them? Discuss with reference to the two articles in your textbook listed above.
Part B: Again making use of the textbook articles listed above, offer a reasoned assessment of the conduct of Francis Haugen with respect to Facebook. Is she a typical whistleblower, or is there something special about her? Is her conduct justified? Give reasons for your answer.
