>> I have a job now, which claims ownership over any tech-related IP I create.
Is there an omitted qualifier to this, e.g. ...while on company time; for IP with sufficient correlation to your primary role?
I'm having a difficult time swallowing the legal enforceability of "all-day-everyday-any-tech-related-IP" outside of military personnel subject to the UCMJ. Would that suggest that you technically couldn't contribute to an open source project?
- davidgay 10y agoYes.
- walshemj 10y agoYes but can you afford the legal representation to prove it is not related.
- sethammons 10y agoI have to get exemptions for any open source contributions or personal projects. My employer gives those out readily, but I'm expected to follow the process.
