From the video description

Afraid someone will steal your idea? That fear might be your biggest obstacle. In this video, I'll tell you why you should stop worrying about your idea getting stolen, what you should be scared of instead, and how to share and protect an idea before you launch. I’m Rob Walling. I’ve been building, growing, and acquiring SaaS companies for nearly two decades. I’ve started six companies (five of them bootstrapped) and exited multiple times, most notably selling Drip in 2016.
