The Federal Trade Commission narrowly voted Tuesday to ban nearly all noncompetes, employment agreements that typically prevent workers from joining competing businesses or launching ones of their own.

    the fact that non competes and NDAs are a thing upon leaving a company is fucking insane

    Non-competes are completely evil. Especially so in fields requiring very specialized skillsets. And even more so when the company insisting on the non-compete lays off people.

    How the fuck is someone supposed to keep a roof over their head in a situation like that?
