This is exactly the position I would take. However, I have little doubt of my ability to find another job quickly (and the resources to weather a period of unemployment fairly easily) so doing something that puts my job at risk in service of my principles is a relatively easy stance for me to take. For those who have less-portable skills, or are in a more competitive labor market, telling your boss to go to hell is a much more dubious choice.
