Not sure if turning down an invitation to discuss is a good thing. You can always say no to the proposals after you have listened to them. Participate in discussions, but don't co-operate with them.
There's zero chance anything good would come out of this meeting anyway, and they wouldn't be able to talk about it due to NDAs, so why bother?
Meta chose to make it a closed meeting, not the dev.
Perhaps the problem was that it was not an open discussion, but an "off-the-records", private one. And, from a moral standpoint, small concessions can end up leading to a slippery slope.

No perhaps. That was all the problem. It was a break of trust by the admins who attended this meeting, and then cannot do a lot to regain the trust since they cannot speak about the subject. Eben is unknown who attended meeting.

I don't have a problem with admins having discussions with Meta. I have a problem with those discussions being off the record or under NDA. We thrive on transparency. The secrecy is the problem.
I understand your point and was inclined to agree, up until it said off the record and confidential. Ohhhhhh, so THEIR privacy is important? They can kindly kick rocks and figure it out themselves, especially for free.
