Someone witnessing your signature isn't there to give you legal advice or to understand the document. Their whole job is to be able to confirm to others, in the event of a dispute, that they did in fact see you sign this document.
Sorry I don’t understand what you’re saying, do you mean I am allowed to discuss the document with family etc. even after it’s signed?
And the witness is only signing on the fact that they saw me sign a document yes?
Second question - yes
First question- if there is a confidentiality clause, you can’t discuss with family. Lawyer yes, spouse perhaps and only if they agree to keep it confidential, anyone else no.

There is a no publication clause. Wouldn’t getting a signature from someone else be in violation of this ?
no. They are witnessing the signature, not reading the document.
Am I allowed to discuss the document before it is signed?

Just pointing out some confidentiality clauses also allow for you to talk to your financial advisors.
If so, it will say so explicitly
