None of my employers have sold my info like that... yet. Also, it's not illegal to have another form of income, even a W2 income.

  True it may not be a crime, but every company I've worked for (mostly "big tech") has a clause in my contract saying that I can't work another full-time job. If I were, and they found out, I'd probably get fired.

    “Fire me. I have 3 other jobs.”

      Bingo. I think people have a hard time understanding this. I always get asked, "What happens if you get fired?", I have 4 jobs... I certainly don't want to lose a job, but it's not a big deal to me. Also, finding a new job has never been that difficult, especially in this market.

If I were, and they found out, I'd probably get fired. I don't doubt that some contracts state you can't work another job, but I would consider rereading some of your contracts. Especially in work friendly states, it's hard to enforce those types of clauses and companies are really good at wording things like it's a restriction when it's really a legal suggestion. > and they found out How exactly would an employer easily find out? I also worked multiple jobs at FAANG level big tech, you would have to explicitly say something to get found out. In fact, the big tech jobs I've had were genuinely the most administratively bloated and least likely to find out.
