    How should the government balance incentivizing employees to report export violations against potential workplace trust and retaliation concerns?

  2. 02

    What specific dollar amounts or percentages of recovered fines would make whistleblowers likely to report illegal technology exports rather than stay silent?

  3. 03

    Which companies handling dual-use items might face the highest compliance costs to prevent violations, and how could that affect their competitiveness?
