"Voluntarily" is doing a lot of work there. There is a huge power imbalance between employers and unemployed people looking for a job, especially as they may face bankruptcy and homelessness if they go too long without income.

Still less of a power imbalance than talking about the government. Let's not forget that the government is the one who enforces those non-competes. So you're really only talking about one subset of the government authority.
