My wife, newly hired, was asked to un-blur her camera during a routine meeting to confirm her I9 information. This seems like a violation to me?
She had interviewed and met both remotely and in person, this guy was merely an HR drone confirming her documentation. I was a little bent when she told me he had asked her to remove her blur filter "to have a look at her working environment, make sure it's not cluttered" (something along those lines). No one else at this company requested such. Was he way out of line?
I should note, this is my PC in our living room and not where she will be working from. And this guy wants a look around our home?! Told my wife to bring this up once she's settled in, ask HR if this is policy. She started today!
She thinks it's a racism thing. I'm not so sure, but I don't have any other explanation.

"Sorry, this is a shared office and my partner is working under NDA"
No such thing as an NDA that allows a spouse to work in the same room, and allows the spouse to actually be on video while blurred, but draws the line at not being able to unblur the video.
It is it's the NDA you made your partner sign.
There is and unfortunately I cannot show you the NDA as the NDA won't allow me to show you the NDA. The NDA does allow me talk about the conditions in general like this though.
