There are much more fundamental injustices being fought for right now, but depressed to see @amazon continuing to use #noncompete agreements to limit the free flow of talent in Washington State, still just wrong at every level https://t.co/6AcfFzqP8U

Can't be sympathetic with any company enforcing a non-compete. But an interesting angle here is that Google (like many) has a very strong Prior-IP exclusion clause—that includes former employers'—upon entry. So I wonder how they would have navigated that at Google.

Non-competes suck. 18-months is especially aggressive.

I wondered how long it'd take this to show up in public. It's been in the docket for two weeks. :-)

My thoughts on AWS non-competes are pretty well known by now:https://t.co/YQXTK5dOh5 https://t.co/gn1p3VTqSI
