Forgive my ignorance. What are the consequences of being outed as a black hispanic?
- saagarjha 4y agoI assume it’s a demographic that is measured on the typical set of questions but with a small proportion of the total population, making it easier to deanonymize.
- gretch 4y agoI think they mean that this rare combination won’t have the anonymity granted to larger groups. Some stat sheet will say “black Hispanics make $X” and it’ll be obvious to everyone working there that it maps 1:1 with Dave
- onlyrealcuzzo 4y agoThey really didn't put anything in the bill to make sure K>1??
- gretch 4y ago> those with 100 or more employees or contractors will have to report median and mean hourly pay rates by job category and “each combination of race, ethnicity, and sex.” is what's in the article So it's possible that a particular combination results in a population small enough that it's easy to identify even in the greater pool of 100
- presentation 4y agoITT nobody actually read the bill, myself included

- Spivak 4y agoAnd this kind of thing already happens right now at my company. I can't do surveys at my company that want to collect demographic information because white woman 20s in engineering is enough to narrow down the responses to exactly two people. If I don't respond my voice won't be heard, if I do I risk retribution. Yayy...
