I'm not sure it's that easy. The complaint dings Facebook for allowing targeting of ads by zip code. Isn't it the case in principle that people choose to live in certain areas? I don't think that discriminating on the basis of voluntary association that happens to correlate with protected group membership is enough to spare one from HUD's gaze.
- jogjayr 8y agoThat's just one of the charges. The others are even more damning - targeting by sex, religion or country of origin.

Your claim is that targeting limitations cover only protected class membership itself and not proxies for protected class membership. I provided an example of the HUD penalizing Facebook for allowing targeting by a proxy. How is pointing out that the HUD is also complaining about non-proxy targeting supposed to invalidate my point about the HUD targeting a proxy?
