Go hack yourself (repost)

Para protegerse de las fugas de información confidencial, y que su "propiedad intelectual" no termine apareciendo en sitios como Wikileaks, una compañía hace firmar a sus empleados un "non-disclosure agreement" (acuerdo de confidencialidad) con cláusulas estrictas y severísimas penalidades, por ejemplo :

You accept and agree that the information disclosed, or to be disclosed to you pursuant to this agreement is, by its nature, valuable proprietary commercial information,” the agreement reads,“the misuse or unauthorized disclosure of which would be likely to cause us considerable damage.”

The confidentiality agreement [...] imposes a penalty of 12 million British pounds– nearly $20 million — on anyone responsible for a significant leak of the organization’s unpublished material.

De que compañía estamos hablando ?


Por supuesto, de Wikileaks.

WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange now makes his associates sign a draconian nondisclosure agreement that, among other things, asserts that the organization’s huge trove of leaked material is “solely the property of WikiLeaks,” according to a report Wednesday.

La hipocresía de Assange no tiene límites. Que bueno sería que lo hackeen y le expongan todo el site, y tenga que volver a trabajar tocando la quena de carne en los baños públicos.

Más del tema, (incluyendo el PDF del acuerdo de confidencialidad).
