OK. 'Sarcastic' was the wrong word. Point was you were not trying to catch me out

"I'm very selective about who I do work for. Most of them are friends and close aquaintances. Because of what was learned during the last case, I require that they provide the chips and assure me that if they ever sell them, it will be with "full discloser". If they betray that, I will not be bound by any sort of loyalty not to expose them."

I can verify the above to be true. Strange that many of your friends and acquaintances wouldnt admit to being so in public though
