According to the complaint, Scarlett helped found “Apple Too,” modeled after the #MeToo movement against sexual violence, and intended to encourage Apple employees “to share stories and create transparency around incidents of discrimination, inequity, racism and sexism they experienced in the course of their employment” at Apple.

In the summer of 2021, Scarlett created and posted online a pay-equity survey where Apple employees could anonymously share information about their compensation, job categories, experience and personal information “in order to identify potential pay disparities.” Scarlett posted the survey on her personal account on social media platform Twitter, now called X.
