Are you sure "he did no use taxpayer money"?

Oh, and speaking of Stormy...she's cooperating with federal prosecutors.

Does that mean sheâ€™s gonna blow herself up?

My â€œnotâ€ missed the T, what is Harryâ€™s excuse. Not enough money to buy a
spell checker? I assume you required a â€œdâ€ on petar.
Sure she is cooperating, no choice. When is she going to have to return
the $130 large for breaking the legal agreement?

From what I have heard it is up to a million every time she speaks
about it. If nothing else comes out of this, I bet we find out more
than we wanted to know about the enforceability of NDAs.
As I said in the other note CBS was pursuing this too although I doubt
they are going to the mat for Charley. They do have other NDAs like
most big companies, usually surrounding business practices and
intellectual property. If Stormy can invalidate hers, just because she
wants to, it will send a shudder down the spine of a lot of companies.

We had NDAs for some people at the company I had that were designed to
protect intellectual property and other proprietary company information.

I only had to enforce it once. We had a sales guy who's responsibility
was to coordinate the generation of technical proposals by the
engineering department and our price bid for contracts and present them
to the customer. At one point we had submitted a proposal for a major
contract and the sales person suddenly left the company to join a
competitor. I knew the president of the competitor ... we actually were
friends from past mutual employments ... and when I found out that he
was bidding on the same contract I called foul. When I told him that I
had a copy of our proposal with our price, signed by his new salesman,
he said he'd get back to me. He did, within an hour, apologized and
told me he had withdrawn his bid for the contract.

It was so blatant that I didn't even need to get lawyers involved.

That is why we should be taking this stormy thing seriously. If she
can get away with breaking her NDA with no consequences it might
create a precedent that actually affects something important.
IBM had a blanket NDA that you signed but until you got up into plant
level hardware support most guys did not really have any sensitive
material beyond inventories and customer lists.
When I got the source code listings for the microcode in the 4300s and
other related docs, I had to sign another, more specific NDA. They
also tried to enforce a no compete on the guys who were separated with
a "package" but that did not survive a challenge.

Most enforceable business NDAs have a time period that they remain in
force should you leave the company. Usually it's a year.
