Eli5: how exactly can companies enforce non-compete contracts? How is it their business what company you go to, and how would they even know?
In: 11
They enforce them by having their legal counsel send a letter to the legal counsel of the new company you work for. The letter will say that the new company is employing someone in violation of a non-compete agreement. The new company usually gets spooked enough to no longer keep you employed.
So they get de-facto enforced that way
