The cases that make it to court are often the ones where the employee was in the wrong, but cases that make it to court aren't the only thing to judge these policies by. If the policies cause a chilling effect where people who join give up on contributing to outside projects (as the OP twitter thread and multiple others from the author talk about), then it's valid to criticize the policy for that. The cases that make it to court are more likely to have the employee be in the wrong because they're selected from the subgroup of cases where the employee went against the policy instead of quitting outside contributions.
