It's probabilities. If you report it you're 100% out of a job but only maybe prevented something bad from happening. If you don't report, you keep your job but maybesomething bad happens. Reliance on a job for survival shifts the decision even further to taking the course of action that'll keep you your job.
That's a great answer to my question, thanks!
I don't see how it's certain loss of job when you could whistleblow without revealing your identity.
