Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Rule # 1 of signing an NDA: you're not allowed to say that you signed an NDA.

[–] WereCat@lemmy.world 19 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Even if you don't mention who you signed it with? There's quite a bit difference between saying "I've signed NDA" and "I've signed NDA with company (name)"

I mean, who else other than your last employer would it be with?

Breaking the agreement does not always mean you will get in trouble for it. This is the one rule that can be risked breaking without facing repercussions.

Breaking it in any way means you will likely have to pay back any money they gave you immediately.

Personally, I would consider that to be a repercussion.

I didn't say there are no repercussions. I said it is a safe bet on a risk that many individuals are willing to make.

I mean, you can break any rule, law or agreement without facing repercussions, if you don't get caught.

I have nipples, Greg. Could you milk me?

There might be repercussions, if we get caught though.

I'm glad we both came to an agreement 🤝

Actual Rule #1 of signing an NDA: unless you work on Defense, NDAs are virtually unenforceable

[–] Telodzrum@lemmy.world 3 points 4 months ago

This is really fucking terrible advice.
