Case: Florian Gerber is employed by PLT Engineering, an engineering firm in private practice involved in the manufacturing of automotive components. As part of its services, PLT Engineering uses Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM) software under a licensing agreement with a vendor. Under the terms of the licensing agreement, PLT Engineering is not permitted to use the software at more than one plant without paying a higher licensing fee. PLT Engineering ignores this restriction and uses the software at a number of different plants. Florian becomes aware of this practice and calls a hotline publicized in a technical publication and reports his employer's activities
