What Is LuxLeaks and Why Are Journalists Being Charged?




So just who were some of these companies?

Pepsi,

IKEA,

The Walt Disney Co.,

Deloitte, Earnest & Young,

Koch Industries,

AIG,

Deutsche Bank and

parts of the Canadian Government, to name a few.

 Although one wished to remain anonymous, a man named Antoine Deltour has spoken out, saying that he chose to leak do ents due to a personal conviction. Deltour could face five years in jail if convicted.
Many within the journalistic and human rights communities believe that if whistleblowers and journalists are put in jail, while companies remain almost consequence free for their actions, it sets an incredibly dangerous precedence for the future of ethical business practices.
