@FTC's final rule banning non-competes references my comment on why Training Repayment Agreement Provisions (TRAPs) are functional equivalents to non-competes: ftc.gov/system/files/f…:

"[O]ne commenter cited a TRAP that required entry-level workers at an IT staffing agency who were earning minimum wage or nothing at all during their training periods to pay over $20,000 if they failed to complete a certain number of billable hours."
Looks like @FTC will pass the final rule banning new non-competes by a margin of 3-2.
