There's something very visceral about being able to look at someone's specific offer, knowing that there is a person out there
I also wrote a bit about salary research in general, on our blog:

And yes, to your point - absolutely more accurate than Glassdoor.
Cool. Thanks for the explanation!
EDIT: Apparently 21/2436 have been denied. That's still nowhere close to 2/3 though
EDIT: I found another page that actually did have my own H1B: http://h1b.myftp.org/ . However, I believe it did show one H1B in my company as approved which is actually denied.
I'm in that data, yet I have an E-3, not an H-1B.
One unintended consequence of moving to the US that I wasn't expecting is that now my friends back home roughly know what my salary is. I understood when moving here that the LCA (which has salary details) would be posted in public spaces, but I didn't notice it was also a matter of public record which in this day and age, means global public record.
I work in a smaller city, so while I may have been relatively anonymous in somewhere like Silicon Valley, my location, company and role and year of employment is more that enough to uniquely identify me. Such is life.
The LCA has to be included in the PAF, but there's other stuff in there, too.
Likely all useless to you unless you're an investigative reporter, immigration activist, or just masochistic statistician, but it's supposed to be there, nonetheless.
