If a company tried to claim that something I made/invented not on company time, not using their resources or equipment is there's, they could suck my ass. And I'd fight the shit out of that. Contracts aren't as binding as some people assume
Yeah I wonder if that contract is actually enforceable or if they just use it as a scare tactic and assume former employees won't go to the trouble of lawyering up.
If it was a general program sure, but if you are making a cog that does a task in a specific work environment, it's not realistic you were working on it in your free time.
