I simply don't care. I don't want a law that penalizes everyone just so that a company has an advantage. All companies are on equal footing by getting rid of non-competes.

The entirety of IP law. I don't have to think of non-competes as patents or a way of protecting trade secrets, because patents and trade secrets have their own separate (and quite potent) legal protections.

Pay people enough that they wouldn’t be incentivized to do this and they won’t. Instead we have trillion dollar corporations lobbying for laws to make free markets of labor illegal

Patents stifle innovation too.

NDAs and trade secrets still exist.

I'm sorry to see "I don't care" as the top response to your thoughtful comment.

We are better off if we can argue the merits of both sides of issues. Trying to ram one answer down everyone's throats is not productive and does not make for good conversation.
