Amazon seems to start taking legal action every year or so over non-competes, makes a splash in the tech press, and then comes to an agreement. I'm at least half convinced it's just to ensure the non-compete can't be argued to be null and void via failure to enforce.
IIRC the non-compete is pretty wide ranging from Amazon. Makes it almost impossible to get another tech job, depending on how you interpret certain phrases. Fun stuff.

- mabbo 7y agoNot everyone at Amazon is in Seattle. Or even America. There's over 3000 of us in Canada right now, just on the tech side. And honestly, given your political climate and attitudes towards immigrants, whew, no way, do not want to move to the USA.
