Executive order this week that’s pretty big if it comes to fruition. I could see some reason behind a noncompete but I bet for every one of those, there’s ten that are petty and unnecessary for a business to force upon their employee
Biden Moves To Restrict Noncompete Agreements, Saying They're Bad For Workers

Interesting stuff in the article too about how states have handled it to this point in time, with only three doing outright bans.

President Biden is making good on a campaign promise to curtail noncompete agreements.
As part of a sweeping executive order, Biden is asking the Federal Trade Commission to ban or limit such agreements, which restrict where you can work after leaving a job.
The move is part of a larger push from the administration to promote competition and remove barriers that stymie economic growth. The White House argues that noncompetes drive down wages by making it harder for workers to switch to better-paying jobs.
