>Personal time, is personal time, and none of the employers business even if moonlighting for a competitor.
How are you proving that you did not use internal company knowledge to build the competing product? This is a legal nightmare, just do yourself a favor and don't do it. Or do you also think that NDA-clauses for employees are invalid?
I never said i did it or would do it... I like my employer and have no desire to moonlight at all.
However they do not own me, which is what your implying with your statements. Any employer that needs to use legal threats and controls on my personal time to control me is probably not someone I would ever work for anyway

See, most people are trying to be nice and I'll take your word for it that you're one of them. That's not the people we write contracts for. The contracts and legal threats are for the people that don't play nice. Those employees that push of all their work to the colleagues so that they can not only moonlight for the competition, but actively support it during their time at the office. (no joke, seen that).
