Looks like the FTC is not overstepping its bounds.

Congress said unfair competition is outlawed. The FTC can determine what unfair competition means and enforce it.

Surely they cannot define arbitrary actions as “unfair competition”. It must at least have some basis in reality. That’s the whole point of the Loper Bright decision.

Banning non-competes for line cooks is not an "arbitrary action".
