Very much so. When I moved from a job in academia to one in the private
sector, the amount of stuff I could talk about dropped a lot. At the old
job, anything I was doing was discoverable via FOIA filing so we didn't
care much about disclosing technical details of how things worked. Here in
the private sector, we have secret-sauce to keep secret and that means
there are some things I just can't talk about for, you know, "reasons".
Doesn't stop me from helping other people though.
