I don't think I'm getting through to you. In the interest of self preservation the author should stay as far away from company lawyers and HR as possible. In fact if you are facing a moral or ethical dilemma then no company resource will be of any use. Company resources will actively hinder you. I will repeat, it is naive to think otherwise.
I'm not sure what you mean by "self-preservation". If you mean keeping your job - well, other posters have suggested quitting. If just talking to people gets you fired, you probably don't want to work there anyway.
Of course, that assumes a certain level of privilege. For someone who can't afford to quit and find another job, things are different.
