Is it okay to work on models, CIMs, or other pitch-work in public spaces?

The NDA I had to sign explicitly stated to not work/show any work you’re doing while staffed on a live deal in public, yet I always see people on Litquidity working in public. Is it okay to work on sensitive information (CIMs, or other private deal related-information) in public? I’m paranoid of being posted on Litquidity or something and losing my job because I went against my NDA

Your social credit score will go down….proceed with caution. In all seriousness, you could choose a public setting where your back is to the wall and gives ample distance between the people next to you. People do not care about what you’re doing on your laptop, they’re focused on their own lives.

 

Buy a privacy screen protector. There are very cheap one on Amazon. Unless someone is literally behind you looking straight at your screen they won't be able to see anything
