Wait wait… explain this ADP thing. How do I opt out?
Go here: https://employees.theworknumber.com/. Create account log in, surf through myriad of pages to find the way to opt out. It's in there somewhere.
Companies are trying to prevent people switching jobs to get raises by creating a central database of all employees and their salaries. That way, when you try to find a new job they can pull up your salary history and not accidentally give you a 40% bump when your desperation factor clearly shows you'll settle for 10%.
I assume adp is just one of those companies doing this, and you opt out by not participating in the economy.
Plus blacklist, which happens accidentally with ai recruiters now
