From Doc Searls:

I’ve signed so many nondisclosure agreements in my life that I’m surprised my reflection still appears in mirrors.

Most of those agreements were required by a corporate paranoia about competitors – or anybody – “stealing” an idea. In most cases, however, there was no real cause for fear, because everybody qualified to steal the idea was 1) too busy trying working on their own ideas, and 2) possessed by the belief that their own ideas are, prima facie, better than everybody else’s ideas.
