Answer to Question 1

Engineers that are required to sign confidentiality statements in order to be eligible to work for a firm need to realize that they may not be able to go public with any information they posses even if it could potentially harm the public.

Answer to Question 2

The types of ethical violations that engineers should report to their engineering professional society when they discover other engineers doing them are anything that is done that violates the engineering code of ethics for the branch of engineering that the person committing the ethical violation is a member of when they commit the violation.
