A fun little article here on those irksome confidentiality disclaimers<\/a> that so many companies (including, alas, mine) insist on sticking at the bottom of all outgoing e-mail. Rrg.<\/p>\n

Ignoring the e-mail’s threats, I forwarded it to my 175-pound Samoan attorney for his opinion, and he convinced me that Time Inc. has much more to fear from me than I have to fear from Time Inc. In fine Socratic fashion, my counsel walked me through the disclaimer, sentence by sentence, encouraging me to add my own thinking to our exercise. Here are my notes.<\/p>\n

Be sure to also not miss this lengthy site <\/a>on the subject, these <\/a>amusing parodies, and the longest disclaimer on record<\/a>.<\/p>\n
