I am a research assistant, and both of the research coordinators breached confidentiality today by discussing identifying information about a subject openly for others to hear. Should I report them to the IRB? I'm scared that it's not very frenly to do.

Well, yeah, fren. What if it were my personal info that was exposed by carelessness? I would want you to prevent it from happening again. Can you report in confrendentially?

1  FUCK-YOU-KEVIN 2019-05-22

sadly no. The reporter is known in these circumstances.

Someone broke the rules. The rules can't be enforced unless those who enforce them are aware that they are being broken. If the rules can't be enforced, then the nonfrens win!
You know what to do, fren. Be brave!

Nothing bad is actually gonna happen as a result of their carelessness. Science matters more than privacy, anyways; if you hurt their careers, fren, you hurt science.

Science is how we can distinguish frens from nonfrens :)
