Griggs v Ohio made employer IQ tests unlawful, so employers started requiring college degrees. With the push to "give everyone a degree", standards have dropped so now employers can no longer use a degree as a filter for IQ. Thus: leetcode interviews.

The solution is to overturn Griggs v Ohio.

> IQ tests unlawful

So making a test to see who you'll recruit is unlawful. I don't know what to say.
