I heard of this stuff before, sounds insane companies try to claim everything you make as their own even if working on it at home using your own funds and equipment. As much I don't like the politics of California, I feel like this is something they got right. Wonder if maybe this is why some companies are expanding in other places like Austin, Texas or Salt Lake City? Like for example Apple is going to the largest employer in Austin, yet Texas doesn't offer as many employment protections... Maybe as things grow, Texas and other states will look into the issue more... I do think in general tech spreading throughout the country instead of being centralized in California is a pro though.
