Like the one time I had a personal emergency and I asked permission to leave the office one hour before the end of my workday, and I was denied and threatened with disciplinary action. Was that ethical? In such an environment perhaps one could understand from my perspective, why ethics are subjective, and exist on a sliding scale. | |

As for the legality of it - that's for someone else to answer as I'm not a lawyer however someone cannot force your thoughts much like they can't force your methods out of you. Just pay close attention to any contract / agreements you have signed and ensure that you're not bound by that. | |

Anyone could arrive at the same conclusions I have with the same level of effort: they would rather not and rather appropriate my methods which led to those conclusions, for themselves. Knowing this, is it OK for me to tell them NO, these are my tools, go build your own if you want the same conclusions ?? | |
