I'd like to know more about the non-disparagement clause which
multiple people have stated that the Foundation's NDA includes. In
particular, does it forbid employees from discussing the fact that the
Foundation's policy of paying below market salary discriminates
against potential hires with large expenses such as kids in college or
a mortgage from 2007? Does it forbid employees from discussing the
fact that the only evidence ever produced by Foundation employees in
support of that policy is a non-peer reviewed popular press book which
is not only contradicted by all of the recent secondary sources on the
subject, but the interpretation of which is contradicted by the author
of the book himself?
