Why is everyone here afraid to name the companies?
Unless you're sharing something that only you would know and the company is aware that you're the only one who knows it, there's no way they can identify you.
Something tells me the people posting here who had "NDAs" didn't actually have any sort of a high level clearance to important information.
It's a bold assumption that you will never dox yourself or be doxed. The fediverse by nature not at all private.
So... avoiding mentioning the company name will help an individual if they're doxed while talking about it?
Do you really believe this?
Yeah it's not like these companies that do shady/illegal shit to save money go out and hire the best PIs and exCIA ops to find people who shit talk them. They use google and type in their business name with an extra word or two about their bad actions to find people who shit talk them.
"It's not like"
Just say they do. Don't try to beat around the bush. Don't play leapfrog with yourself, lol.
Just be direct about what you want to say. Own it.
You'll come off as less pretentious.
