EB-1A is a category for green card applicants to pursue if they can prove they belong to the small percentage who have risen to the very top of their field through sustained national or international acclaim.
I find it highly odd and suspicious that an applicant for that category is working as a door dasher.

I looked into the contact for the case https://www.justice.gov/crt/staff-profile/assistant-attorney-general
There are other top AI companies doing this stuff too and I was wondering how the investigation got started in order to see this type of result?
Why was there a settlement instead of a lawsuit like in the cloudera case?
I noticed the previous US Assistant Attorney General (

) had similar cases that amounted to more in monetary damages.

What changed in the law this year because the current assistant attorney general claims that the law limited her ability to issue a harsher punishment?
seeing this stuff just makes me sad because this company in particular made a big statement in 2025 about how they were going to get rid of other programs in favor of a merit culture.
Even their assessments for interviews being leaked inside various group chats or being taken in environments that allow others to have others take their interviews for them just shows the lack of a merit based system.
