This is the display of how we fight this. And I can only imagine the balls it took for you to take that position and move along. You’re one of those scarce unsung heroes that stands by his values instead of bending over to avoid inconvenience or even potentially detrimental outcomes.

Saltarello@lemmy.world 1 week agoYou can’t simply VPN around it. I applied for a job via one of the popular job sites. Tried to log in to the site a week later only to to find my account had been blocked until I provide proof of ID to a US based company …I’m in Europe. Spoiler alert: I did not provide proof of ID & so have no idea whether or not I was a suitable applicant for the job.
Guess i won’t be job hunting through that site again. The whole thing is farcical.
