You can't just leak anything you want and claim you're a whistleblower. Whistleblower protection is for leaking illegal actions, not for posting a petition that you don't like some executives.

You’re right. A whistleblower has to report illegal activity, and that’s not what the petition does. My phrasing is bad.
