For most tech jobs with non-competes in the US, the non-compete is unpaid. Which is different than other industries such as finance.

Same here in Canada. I have had three non-competes in my career, none of which were paid. All of them were probably unenforceable if it went to trial, but I would have never gotten that far in the hiring pipeline. I instead opted to switch industries and move to a jurisdiction that doesn't allow non-competes.
