For me the risk just seems too high. I have lots of ideas all the time. The problem with an NDA is that I don't know beforehand what they want to tell me. What if they tell me something I already had as an idea myself, and was looking forward to working on?

Worse, it seems difficult to prove in hindsight what is things they told me and what isn't. An NDA might give them the option to hijack any of my further work by claiming that it is based on something they told me beforehand.

So I have a lot to lose and nothing to gain.
