In the wake of its decision to furlough workers, EmPower had several job postings on its website, including for solar installers.

hmmm

People should mass apply to those postings and waste their time.

is more efficient to make bot

True but if they realize that lots of applications are fake they can just filter out the fakes by the IP address. Unless you use a botnet. Which is not legal.

Tor or other ip randomizer services are legal

It would sure be a shame if someone started flooding the job postings with fake applicants. I’ve heard of this happening before and it’s quite disruptive, wouldn’t cha know.

Or even more shamefully, actually going through with it and just not showing up when you're meant to start.
