It should go without saying, but I'll say it anyway: the public release is already enough to mass target people based on their race, gender and immigration status, not to mention the actor's anti-#DEI anti-#AffirmativeAction positions. Freezing credit might still be too little too late, but at this point I fail to see any better recourse (even after consulting with professionals).

The ConversationCampus diversity is becoming difficult to measure as students keep their race and ethnicity hidden on college applicationsA year after the Supreme Court banned race-based admissions, students’ choices and college policies have affected a view of its impact.
«De jure discrimination, such as segregation laws, meant that Black and Latino people were widely barred from attending many universities, thus limiting today which students of color would benefit from legacy admissions. “Who had the opportunity to attend these institutions one or two generations back?” Park asked. “Predominantly white families.”»
