I agree but there are many companies that make their companies all white or black or <insert country they're from>. So there needs to be a practical way to day "you're in detroit and your 10k person company is hiring only white people for 20 years straight?" because otherwise how can equal treatment of everyone be enforced? If hiring was done on an objective metric this would be an easy solution, but even if you are skilled and experienced , they can say everyone of a certain race is a bad culture fit, didn't go to the all white college which also uses similar resons for exclusion, your experience and skills are not what they want (they don't have to hire the most skilled and experienced) and at most states they don't even need to give a reason at all. This was already happening before the civil rights act and after as well against the law. While better laws are conceivable, this is what judges are there for, to determine if the intent and effect was harming someone based on race. The gov doesn't force them to use race metrics, it just sues them if they, let's say, layoff 5k people and 4900 are all of a certain race and that happens to be 99% of people of that race. That doesn't make the company guilty, it just forces them to justify in front of a jury their reasoning (perhaps people of that race all worked in one department that was really not needes?). Their aversion to lawsuits is what drives their insanity. If you can prove that all the applicants of a certain race did not meet an objective criteria which can be scrutinized by outside industry experts then I see no problem with excluding those people and I have never heard of the EEOC suing companies otherwise (although I would be glad to be educated on this), and you will find many companies do have entire all white or all some nationality (east or south asian in tech) departments solely based on objective metrics. I am just saying, no law forced twilio so perhaps blame twilion in this case instead of the law/gov?
