Hey, if I can get money by selling my right to free speech under the first amendment, can I also sell my second amendment rights, too? My voting rights are going to the highest bidder…You know, like John Bonior….
Only trouble with that, Danae, there’s no one to leak what you can’t discuss. In DC, leaks are so prevalent, NDA’s are only mentioned in passing as a reason why I shouldn’t be telling you this because . . .
An NDA is giving up the right for free speech? I suppose. In my business, not signing one is often giving up the freedom to receive money from a client.
I hear thru the grapevine that my erstwhile second husband is being sued by his former employer for breaking an NDA by telling company secrets. A con man to the end. Do they never learn?

That’s the sort of agreement you hope you never learn what it was about!

Someone is getting ready to show her school report to her dad. By tricking dad like that, she is forbidding herself to present the report.

I never had to sign a paper, but by law I was forbidden to discuss most of my work. I was a tax auditor!

Wouldn’t it just be simpler to say “I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you”?

As I have said before, any attorney worth a damn should be able to void a NDA.
