It's typical procedure to not discuss one's salary at work.An unwritten social rule; absolutely not factual procedure.
I've worked for a US company once where the standard contract explicitly listed disclosing your salary to co-workers as a fireable offense. Not that they checked on this or anybody was ever fired for it (and I doubt they would be able to hold it up in court), but it was factual procedure that is not uncommon in the US.

I'd expect that some companies would have the twisted social insight of putting it in a contract, but that doesn't make it any more valid.
Other fireable offenses in explicitly listed in the standard employment contracts were: wearing flip-flops or mini-skirts, writing "What the fuck?" in corporate emails, drinking beer during work hours, smoking pot outside work hours, engaging in terrorist activities and so on.

Everything is a file
The UNIX and Linux crowd live by this dogma and apply it to the whole world.
Blakeyrat is a file called $home. If he doesn't want to be a file, he doesn't exist.
It's all Window's fault that it doesn't accept this dogma.

Even in the US, the courts have ruled several times that clauses which restrict what an employee does outside work hours are invalid. The best they can do is to write in a "morality clause", and that only applies to positions where the employee is explicitly acting as a role model or representative (eg, school teacher).
The clauses that restrict what you can say to other employees during work hours are treated as valid in most of the US, but you really do not want to work for anybody who uses them.
I'm not sure if that's true for illegal activities such as smoking pot or flying planes into buildings. Some US companies do random drug tests on employees.
