Question is why was it there in the first place , so hideous, so late on Friday, one week time to update the profile. Why not more time when it concerns privacy.

The fact that it got to this point I think would be concerning:

a) No one thought this was a bad idea, or

b) people who thought it was a bad idea didn't want to say it was a bad idea (why?), or

c) people who did say it was a bad idea were not listened to (feedback was not acted on).

I wonder if searching LinkedIn/Crunchbase might reveal a small team of people with experience in the technical recruiting space who've very recently left Triplebyte?

That might be a good indicator that perhaps _they_ are the sort of people who might sensibly be trusted with job seeking personal information...
