Noncompete what to do?

Have a noncompete at my firm for 3 months (I’m very junior).

It’s a Midwest based firm and I just received an offer at a BB in a better coverage group for more pay in NYC.

Do I tell my company that I’m leaving to that firm? Do I not say where I’m going? Can they do anything about me leaving legally speaking? Would the DOR call the DOR of the other company and tell him I’m violating my noncompete? Any merit in just waiting 3 months to update LinkedIn?

How would an employer know if you began your next job that was a competitor? Assuming you don't do anything stupid like updating LinkedIn, for example

this is terrible legal advice
