You seem to have left out this entire paragraph in your summary of the law you sited
> a. Relate at the time of conception or reduction to practice to Company’s business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development.
- gumby 10y agoNo, that's in the text I quoted and I referred to it in my original comment: the CA courts have historically sided with the employees over the companies except when it was pretty unambiguous that the employee was going into the same business as their (former) employer, e.g. Avant! -- which typically includes actual taking of source code. On the other hand stories like google's self driving car team departing to start their own self driving car company, or the tons of people who have left Cisco to start routing companies are legion.
