#nda — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #nda, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Many talks between #datacenter developers and local governments are wrapped in secrecy behind non-disclosure agreements — residents question the need #NDA, developers argue it’s important to avoid ‘running afoul of insider trading rules’
    Many officials defended signing secrecy agreements, saying its standard practice in tech and that they could lose the potential business and revenue that data center projects could bring to their jurisdiction

  2. I filed Grievance #2 today concerning Salem's handling of the Verrus data-center NDA.

    It asks whether, after the NDA and project were disclosed, the Council's decision to let the arrangement continue without public action amounted to acquiescence, approval, authorization, or ratification.

    This is the first step to requesting an investigation with the Oregon Government Ethics Commission.

  3. My first Public Meetings Law grievance concerning Salem’s handling of the proposed $5.1 billion #DataCenters project has now been received by the City.

    The grievance addresses the July 13 meeting, when the City Manager publicly disclosed the project and the City’s #NDA without that subject being identified on the agenda.

  4. @Techmeme So this would provide cover to Elon Musk who was moving in portable electric generators for his large scale AI farms?

    We're facing a $5 billion proposed #Datacenter in #SalemOR by Google who have been talking with the city for 16 months in secret ( #NDA ) and I'm not seeing anything that would prevent them from doing what Musk is doing: bring in their own power generation and EPA regulations be damned. A new Google.

  5. #Google has been operating under a 16-month non-disclosure agreement ( #NDA ) with #SalemOR concerning a proposed $5 billion #DataCenter.

    The developers hint that it will conserve water—but have not explained how. Could its cooling system use #PFAS “forever chemicals”?

    “Opteon 2P50 is also the first chemical for which industry has asked the Trump EPA to fast-track approval.”

  6. @Nonilex #SalemOR - 16 months City worked with Google entity for a $5+ billion #datacenter on 64 acres all under an NDA executed by the City Manager. At least one or more city council members were unaware of the on-goings.

    Government has now become an instrument of Big Money who induce secrecy to prevent traditional public participation.

  8. #SaveMyLouisiana leads protest against Applied Digital data center

    Story by Melinda Martinez, July 20, 2026

    "Save My Louisiana organized a #protest against the #AppliedDigital #datacenter being built in the small Central Louisiana community of Boyce on Saturday, July 18.

    "Those at the protest were concerned with non-disclosure agreements [#NDA's] signed by local officials, higher utility costs and the #EnvironmentalImpact of the Applied Digital data center. A few also questioned the true economic impact of the project, which they think will benefit the company, but not Central #Louisiana.

    "Applied Digital, a Dallas-based digital infrastructure company, broke ground in January on #DeltaForge1, a large-scale artificial intelligence data center located at James Road and La. 121 near Boyce. A news release issued by the Louisiana Economic Development states it is expected to be finished by mid-2027.

    "At a news conference held in May announcing the building of the $3.6 billion data center, Applied Digital board director Richard Nottenburg said that the Delta Forge 1 data center is not a traditional data center.

    "Applied Digital has been working on transitioning from air cooled to liquid cooled data centers, said Applied Digital president and co-founder Jason Zhang at the same news conference.

    “ 'Our design is a proprietary design that allows us to use very minimal water,' he said, adding that it’s an issue that is very important to communities where data centers are built." [So, in other words, an alleged "closed loop system"! But even closed loop systems have to be flushed periodically!!!]

  9. @ianto_jones @selfcare Oh, Ive been there, ianto, last year. #FlockSafety fired me (for of all things being #Trans , and forced me to sign an #NDA to hide this fact and accept my severance), but I guess when you are a #Thiel backed company, hating on #transgender people is easy.

    Fuck Garret Langley.

    And I had to spend 8 months #doordash driving just trying to find a job (at the same time).

    Look up Mobley v Workday. #AI recruiting is bullshit.

  11. Как перестать сливать ключи клиентов в ChatGPT: пишем умный буфер обмена для n8n и Python

    Каждый интегратор сегодня дебажит код и JSON-воркфлоу через нейросети. И каждый хоть раз ловил холодный пот, понимая, что только что скормил в ChatGPT боевой токен от базы данных клиента или API-ключ продакшена. В этой статье я покажу, как навсегда закрыть проблему утечки данных (NDA) при работе со стеком n8n и Python. Мы напишем фоновый демон, который на лету перехватывает буфер обмена Mac/Linux, вырезает все секреты, а когда ИИ возвращает исправленный код — автоматически подставляет реальные ключи обратно из локального сейфа. Итог: 100% безопасность коммерческой тайны, сохранение типов данных для n8n и ноль рутины.

    The have finally shown some initiative! Just keep the flame alive. Win back the necessary to keep the alive.

    But, never forget what happened at the same venue (#JantarMantar) 12 years ago. It was another popular that started the slide we suffered since then - the Against (#IAC) movement. Indian youth got duped and was left with profound disappointment. Be careful about malicious manipulations.

  13. #NDA’s for federal employees is one of the most dangerous things that could be proposed. These employees need to understand security, but MUST be allowed to report #graft, #corruption, & #malfeasance in government to #auditors who actually have the power to do something about it.

  14. My tip for producing excellent Claude Code, or any other LLM coder - don't use it. You wouldn't risk your job on an incompetent stranger who is a thief. Oh, wait. Yes, yes, you would.

    All NDAs in companies running AI bots are as good as toilet paper hammocks in a monsoon.

  15. The #Trump administration proposed a draft #NDA for #federalemployees to prevent #leaks to #journalists. The agreement would allow for civil and criminal penalties for violations and require former employees to obtain permission before speaking to the press about confidential information. Critics argue this move aims to silence federal workers and suppress accountability. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/m #tech #media #news

  16. The #Trump admin is planning a #government-wide nondisclosure agreement [#NDA] that bars #FederalWorkers from sharing a wide array of “confidential government information,” acc/to a draft notice posted to the Federal Register on Tuesday by the #US Office of Personnel Management [#OPM].
