I’m surprised it’s taken so long. Companies have abused this practice to an absurd degree. Got a job at a sandwich shop? I guess you are prohibited from getting a different job down the street based on the agreement you signed at the beginning of your employment.

I know here in Colorado they recently passed a law that under a certain pay you cannot be made to sign a noncompete. However it was only like $110k so wasn't going to help many developers.

I think the sandwich shop and similar working class non-competes is what finally pushed this into happening.
