‘Anti-Ageing Millionaire’ Bryan Johnson Accused of Enforcing NDAs Over Bizarre Office Behaviour

Employees at Johnson’s biotech startup reportedly had to sign agreements consenting to his minimal clothing, sexual discussions, and private lifestyle—claims he defends as transparency, not coercion.

March 24, 2025: Bryan Johnson Accused of Enforcing ‘No-Clothing’ NDAs Over Unorthodox Behaviour at Workplace

Tech entrepreneur Bryan Johnson, known for his obsessive anti-ageing regimen and founder of the startup Blueprint, is facing scrutiny over reports that employees were asked to sign controversial nondisclosure agreements (NDAs) condoning his eccentric workplace behaviour.

According to a recent New York Times report, Johnson—who made millions selling Braintree to PayPal in 2013—required staff to sign a 20-page document granting him broad personal liberties. These included walking around with “little or no clothing,” openly discussing sexual activities like erections, and agreeing that such behaviour was not “unwelcome, offensive, humiliating, hostile, triggering, unprofessional or abusive.”

Johnson, 47, defended the practice, stating that the agreements ensured full transparency about Blueprint’s unconventional workplace culture. “I post nudes, track nighttime erections, and we talk about semen health,” he wrote in response to the NYT. “This isn’t coercion—it’s clarity.”

The NDAs also extended to information about his private life, including his home, vehicles, and personal belongings, regardless of whether they were relevant to the work environment.

No Complaints Allowed

The NYT investigation—based on interviews with 30 individuals—revealed that many employees, particularly women, felt they had no recourse to raise concerns, having already signed off on the opt-in agreements. The culture, they said, made Johnson’s semi-nude appearances and flirtatious behaviour seem untouchable under legal terms.

Johnson also confirmed that his agreements “evolved over time,” insisting the goal was “precision and fairness” within his hyper-controlled company ecosystem.

A Public Figure Under the Microscope

Johnson has long invited attention for his extreme anti-ageing efforts, which include spending over $2 million annually on a regimen to biologically “reverse” his age. His journey inspired a Netflix documentary titled Don’t Die: The Man Who Wants to Live Forever.

He claims that the New York Times spent a year compiling a hit piece on him, but ultimately delivered what he sees as an unintended character profile. “They talked to fired employees, my ex, and still came up empty,” he wrote on X (formerly Twitter), referring to his former wife, who allegedly attempted to extract $9 million from him.

Drugs, Escorts, and Anti-Ageing Experiments

The report also delved into Johnson’s personal lifestyle following his divorce—including his admitted use of psychedelic drugs like DMT and ibogaine, and relationships with sex workers. Johnson has not denied these claims but frames them as part of his larger experiment in living differently.

While critics remain divided over his moral compass, Johnson stands firm on what he sees as a culture of “informed consent” and experimentation.

“This is who we are. If you don’t like it, don’t join us,” he said.
