VCs get away with it because: 1) They have reputations; 2) They have the money 3) It's a practical necessity for someone who looks at a dozen pieces of IP daily.

None of those cases apply to you, and as a general rule, no competent entrepreneur will pay a contractor who won't sign an NDA.

My recommendation would be to sign enthusiastically, because it means you got a job.

Couldn't disagree more.

1.) This isn't about getting a job, it's about helping entrepreneurs start companies.

2.) I already had two queries that rubbed me the wrong way because they are similar to project I have in the works. Signing an NDA would probably jeopardize the work I've already done.
