I think non-competes should only be legal if the controlling entity pays the affected person's full salary for the period of the non-compete. As far as I'm concerned, if you want to control what a worker does you need to pay the worker for the privilege. And prepared to bet if such a thing was the law there would be significantly fewer non-competes in place. And yes, am aware that once you get far enough into the management structure this can be negotiated. I just want it to be the default arrangement for everyone.
