Just take company secrets and walk over to competitors. That is the greatest perks every engineers have but don't exercise it. Some literally become billionaires. You think China overnight taught of everything by themselves? Go ask what did the Japanese and SKorean senior engineers did over the weekends from 90s to 2010s. Law is only effective if it can be proven in a court and judge sentenced it. Vast majority never even reach the lawyers ear. You advocate means you most likely will divulge. The quietest and least "smart" engineers probably are the smartest and riches.
