The problem with this attitude is that withholding that information could be seen as a sign that you’re a problematic employee. Even if the company really doesn’t care, an applicant has no way of knowing that. So by not answering the questions you could be eliminating yourself from the job right away.

It’s easy to be pithy and say “well that’s not a place you want to work anyway”, but that’s counter to the reality that many places don’t have a lot of employment options, and people simply need every chance they can get to find a job on merits as opposed to artificial elimination criteria that some incompetent low level HR person came up with.

I thought the original poster was asking if it was legal for the company to ask this - 'some countries have laws regulating some issues like what a company can ask for a job applicant' - yes they can there's only a few protected categories they can't ask you.

One of them was 'physical address'. I can't think what law someone would think would mean it was illegal to ask this.

It's not an attitude it was an answer to the question.

There's a ton of places to work. If you don't like how they treat you up front then don't bother applying. If it's not web design usually it's the engineer coding the company not the other way around.
