I know of two egregious examples:

1) a private university near me with multiple thousand students, and nearly 1,000 employees (faculty and the like) "tweaking" their payroll numbers to exclude adjuncts, TAs, student employees and such, so they could claim they were a "small business"

2) a startup who closed a $25M round of funding in March, has no product/revenue as yet, and works 100% remote, talks of having a 14 month runway, got a fairly large check "because they're offering money, we should take it" (regardless of need)

Aren't both of those illegal or breaking the agreement? Wouldn't it be better to report them?
