Sorry Australia, but I've never heard of Triple J nor do I care what you think the top 100 songs are.
Certainly never sign anything under pressure. And the more pressure you're under, the less you sign.
An important note here is the "we won't report you to the police" component of the reportedly submitted NDA. No document between you and another party can prevent THEM from reporting a crime. It is their legal obligation to report any crime, regardless of an NDA. And yes, it's probably closer to blackmail. But anytime someone offers you "no cops" in exchange for a "legal document", run the other way. Call a lawyer with your cell phone while you're running.
Techs everywhere need to learn this important lesson: Never Sign Anything unless you are also offered on the same piece of paper a guarantee of you what you receive in return. You get no prize money for signing NDA or DNC. If you ask for it, you will get 1) a job, 2) some cash, 3) some action not taken. You can ask for nothing, but you will get the exact opposite - penalized or harmed. Your goal is to sign something such that if what you are offered is not fulfilled, the NDA is broken
As it stands, asking someone to sign a NDA and not offering a guarantee of something in return is already suspect and can be fought. You had an expectation that you wouldn't get expelled, or that you would get a free education, or something else of benefit to you. People need to learn that colleges, Lance Armstrongs and corporations all act the same way. You will get screwed if and when there is an opportunity to screw you. And you will go broke defending what is right. Few will care. Don't Sign without Something in Return (DSSR)!
With that sort of gestation time, it's no wonder Neanderthals went extinct.
It doesn't take that long to pop out a Nean. Apparently most of us have up to 4% of their genes already, so what's the point of the experiment? Why not have one of those Canadians mate with an Ecuadorian. The results would be so craaaaazy.
Presumably the cost of the sub-contractor is deductible?
Absolutely 100%. Not only that but you can deduct other expenses like dry cleaning clothes to make it look like you were doing the work and the VPN used to migrate your subcontractor into the job site. Get a real crafty accountant and you should be able to keep every red cent.

Hajduk says. 'I don't believe we'll be doing anything wrong.'
Tell that to the US Federal Marshal, FBI, CIA ('I' stands for "It's National" not 'International'), and every other ATF-related or unrelated agency that every existed when they come knocking at your door with handcuffs. With 15 years defending yourself, maybe, just maybe, you'll get out before 2030.

While it says that it will come free from advertising, it DOESN'T say that you won't be monitored while connected.
I'm certain they will recoup costs this way. Nothing is ever free.
Encrypt your communications, no reason you shouldn't whenever you use wireless, free or otherwise.
Anything that can breach security in a government setting is worth withholding indefinitely until a practical policy can be approved which reduces risk to near zero. For unrelated/unregulated industries, this approach is unreliable, impractical, unprofitable, and let's face it, just plain stupid.
Good thing he didn't get dragged to the US for an obscenity trial

The first step is to completely ignore the manual, and this is what they're teaching children. This is a skill I wasn't able to master until I was in college, but today's kids will have it done by high school.
Today's kids are doing creative block-building online, and paint by numbers in Legos. What a strange, twisted world.

So they refrained from using their hands?
They refrained from using thoughts.

Saying that Mattel has no plans to change the game is like saying that Microsoft has no plans to change the iPhone.

It's a fascinating product. I for one, am fascinated how they found 100 backers.
