My employment contract says the following:

  "The rights to any intellectual property created by employee during his work shall be transferred to employer in full."
  "The employee shall shall not be allowed to provide any services to another company and not to run any other business"

And the boss is defensive about the first part applying to anything created in the spare time as well, also refusing to make exceptions.

Is this sort of thing actually enforceable?

What would the process look like if I released a "competing" app independently, and the company wanted to take it down?

Or if they wanted to claim ownership over unrelated media, like a github repository?

I'm living in Cyprus. Does this mean I should be much less afraid of getting sued than if I were in the US?
