Health applications - a review for an app which allows you to record you stool consistence (for Morbus Crohn) could negatively affect your chances for employment as well as open you to ridicule by others.
"You gave AcmeFamilyPlanner 4/5 stars, Mrs Candidate - say, do you want to have a career or a family?" (Hm, of course this could help remove bad employers from your list of prospective work places ;) )

- waterlesscloud 14y agoThe point is that the employer wouldn't even have to ask the question. The data is now public.
- avar 14y agoYou wouldn't ask that question, but use that information to disqualify the candidate before the interview. Just because you can't legally discriminate based on certain things doesn't mean people don't find ways to do so anyway.
