The correct answer is the whistleblowing incident, where sensitive information is disclosed to expose wrongdoing, unethical, or illegal activities. Ethical motivations often involve actions that the actor believes are morally right, even if they are illegal. The other options are related to financial gain, personal belief, or revenge, which do not align with 'ethical' motivations in the information security context.
