Over 20% of female founders are experiencing harassment or coercion and the response is to implement a reporting system to identify serial offenders? This is absurdly inadequate, does nothing to prevent harassment, and leaves the burden on the victims rather than the perpetrators. It should be incumbent on YC to ensure that before any angel or VC is given access to any founders that they are screened for such behavior, including a background check for incidents that happened before they got involved in YC. Anything less is just posturing.
