It's Norway. The system is pretty neat actually in a way that all salaries are _registered_, but if you query someone, the other end figures out who queried you. So in that way, the data is still protected from large-scale scraping and has a slight reputation impact.
- kuu 5y agoDo people use it or are they afraid that the other ends get to know their query? Seems a bit like a way to persuade you to don't use it. For large-scale scraping protection there are other options...
- GauntletWizard 5y agoWhat prevents one person from just being "that asshole" and querying for everyone? What prevents a small hacktivist group from banding together to cover the space and then release it?
- CerebralCerb 5y agoNothing prevents anyone from being "that asshole" because nobody considers someone an asshole for researching their labor market. The newspapers publish lists of the richest 100 in each municipality every year. It's a yearly tradition, and there are no significant protests against it.
