That definitely seems quite egregious and very possibly illegal in many countries. And I don't see any recourse for GW to come after you legally, and succeed, if you just ignore it and keep reviewing their products anyway. Its just scare tactics to try and bully people into compliance.

Hopefully all of the various reviewers out there are smart enough to have a lawyer read their NDAs before signing them.

That looks pretty normal for a non-compete. They don't want you poaching or slandering, basically.

Defamation looks to be an excuse to muzzle negative reviews.

Not really.

It looks to be a way to prevent someone from going after any company that supplies or is supplied by GW.

They stated "do or say anything which may be harmful to the reputation of GW". That means don't say something like GW employs slave labor. What you're thinking is that GW will essentially break freedom of speech, but that is unenforceable. Defamation isn't "you can't say anything bad about entity". It's "don't say something false".

You're also allowed to strike any clause from a document and if they don't wish to sign with that strike then you can negotiate meaning from there.
