A dilemma from dilemmas.day

Your company manufactures pacemakers. You discover a security flaw that could cause cardiac arrest. Your boss orders you to stay silent until next year's update to avoid tanking the stock and causing mass layoffs. If you blow the whistle, you ruin the company and 500 colleagues lose their jobs, but you prevent potential deaths.

Still open. What would you do?
