Follow-up: Google UK's non-disparagement clause lacks protected-disclosure exemptions
BlackHC · x · 2026-10-22
Follow-up from BlackHC: Google UK's non-disparagement clause lacks the necessary exemptions for protected disclosures, which he argues can chill employees from raising serious concerns. He also clarifies the legal nuance: he signed the contract before joining Google, so it doesn't cover his prior employment and nothing he signed ever made it so — publishing the clause puts him at no risk.
