Thoughts if you were given a ton of money just to stay silent what would the implications be?
You have some incredible new tech, you see others working on a new project – yet because you have agreed to silence you cannot invest.
Money is a variable resource – more useful one day than another. Prices of commodities change and fluctuate, same with services.
Silence bought has a price for both the buyer and the seller. In a world full of cameras and bugs it is also a false bandaid.
There is a price, a cost for less silence as well. Paying for tools like computers and cloud computing is a part of the cost. Seen as the only cost seems unwise as well.
Increased communication channels, making friends of people who might have good reasons to have biases and distrust you in advance? No cost to that
