Breaching confidence
Description
Breaching confidence involves the deliberate disclosure of confidential information to address or prevent harm, expose wrongdoing, or protect public interest. This strategy is employed when maintaining secrecy perpetuates injustice, endangers individuals, or obstructs accountability. The essential action is the calculated release of sensitive data to appropriate authorities or the public, aiming to remedy abuses, correct systemic failures, or safeguard vulnerable parties, while weighing potential risks and ethical considerations.
