Ask HN: Would you sign a "mini-contract" upon giving notice?

I just gave notice. HR has asked me to sign a 2 page statement. It's a lot of legal speak, about confidentiality and returning any company material and other bland things which I'm fine with

However, there's also things in here that I'm not in love with, like not criticizing the company ever to anyone and some pretty broad proprietary information stuff.

Why should I sign this? It seems pretty silly to bind myself to anything when there's no benefit to me.
