Uncompensated non-compete clauses have been pretty much unenforceable anyway given the cost of enforcement and the actual value to the enforcer (usually less than 6 figures). It's a good step to ban these given that all they do is make people afraid to work somewhere else.
Compensated non-competes are a totally different story, and probably better to hold on to.

With the help of a labor attorney, I told them that if they wanted to enforce the clause then I would voluntarily withdraw my acceptance of a new job offer and then avail myself of the courts. Burned a bridge, of course, but it took them about 20 minutes to decide I wasn't worth the hassle.
