That's not the point. YC lends credibility to these companies by funding them, so allowing them to post illegal job ads on a platform controlled by YC strongly implies that YC has no problem with that practice.

This is the appropriate venue to talk about it and make YC aware of it.

It's not YC's job to monitor global regulatory compliance for every company they fund.

We're not talking global compliance here though, this is a US-based fund, these are US-based startups, and the regulations involved are by some US states. One would hope national regulatory compliance does fall at least partially under the things they monitor.

I agree it's unrealistic to expect them to monitor compliance across the globe, of course.
