Not a good article, unfortunately. Vague weasel words for the first 5 paragraphs before they get to anything of substance when they say some platforms potentially have something like this. I gave up shortly after. I'm against the practice of course and I don't doubt employers would use this, but if the journalists find something they should really let us know.
