Non-Disclosure Agreements are for young losers, no...
NDA's and work for hire agreements are a requirement for contractors. Otherwise they can end up owning the code they worked on. Happened to a friend of mine and it cost him $20,000 to get rid of the guy.

An NDA and a legal contract about ownership are completely different things.

That's true, but for contractors the two are often combined in the same IP agreement.
