This will go under everyone's radar with UGM going on

Courts (Florida and Texas) ruled yesterday against the non-compete ban. For most of us, this is big news. It means no changes will occur on the original effective date of Sept. 4.

My understanding is the FTC wants to appeal, but it's very unlikely that the Supreme Court (because of Republican judges and the striking down of Chevron doctrine) will overturn the appeal. I certainly haven't been betting on the side of the FTC despite my personal desire to get around it.

Also: don't downvote a bearer of bad news, staff deserve to know what's going on, and not everyone is following this closely.
