pg wasn't questioning whether this was illegal or not, he was interested in what the impact was.

  > he was interested in what the impact was No he wasn't; comparing tech salary growth to other salary growth in the presence of a tech boom was completely disingenuous. Wages can increase relative to other industries, and still be being slowed by collusion. It would be just as disingenuous if someone said we should measure it by whether tech companies' profit per-employee increased during the time relative to other fields, which would give the exact opposite conclusion.

    If you had good enough data you would be looking at the change over time and could see dips in the rate of change. Also, 'disingenuous'? Because he posited the idea that there might be data that could be brought to bear?
