I don't think this is the case. What happens is that if nobody reports (or the LEA don't discover) that it was not reported by someone that had the knowledge of it, nothing is going to happen against the "lack of reporting".
As said, not being a lawyer, the right thing here is to ensure that it is verified by the legal counsel, as well as the complete CoC, to ensure that we aren't trying to enforce something that may create problems at some point.

In modern legal systems the obligation to report crimes is very, very limited. Typically one must only report crimes against human life and similarly severe crimes. Very often this obligation is also limited to the time when the crime can still be prevented. Often the obligation to report can be met by informing the potential victim instead of law enforcement. More general obligations to report crimes are one of the hallmarks of totalitarian systems. Disclaimer: I am not a lawyer and I do not play one on TV. I am not familiar with every jurisdiction in this solar system. ;-) Daniel References: NL: Artikel 160 Sv DE: § 138 StGB ********************************************** IPv4 is over Are you ready for the new Internet ? http://www.theipv6company.com The IPv6 Company This electronic message contains information which may be privileged or confidential.
