The shitty part is, what does that even mean?

"Hey, they hired a black dude, better report it to the DEI Snitch list."

Its just a weird open invitation for assholery.

It reads like they're looking for teams that have cleverly been restructured or renamed to circumvent the order.

Probably just a threat to force conformity. Unless the companies come up with actual disciplinary policy.

This wasn't regarding private companies, it was about government agencies. They're asking government employees to rat out other government employees.

Except they may have policies that tell them they can't contract with anyone who uses DEInpolicies now.

Which is basically, everyone.
