That's a low bar, inserting keywords in white font to trick CV scanners has been a thing for a long time, this is just the next step.

Exactly, I'm surprised at the people applauding this behavior. It's barely an evolution in fooling the ATS and speaks more about the character of the applicant than his skills. While I agree that the current hiring landscape is crazy if we condone this behavior what would be the next step? Doxxing the interviewer(s) and telling them the names of his family members and where they live during the interview?
