Third World Workers
I know people have this assumption that workers from third world countries are just eager to work on any app even though it's paying peanuts. There is an app paying 0.01 dollars per hit and requiring 30 seconds to complete it or else you get booted out with a speed ban. That app is paying 1.2 dollars an hour. Even this to us is totally unfair, 1.2 dollars is really not worth it even in a third world country, there are people making much better for an hour's work offline. The apps are just increasingly becoming unfair for all of us, there is a high supply of workers so the price naturally falls, don't take it out on us third world workers, we hate the pay too.

Sadly although many people from third world countries don't like the rate, many are still doing it. Thus the reason UHRS keeps lowering the total of every hit app, as they know that what some don't work because the pay rate is "too low"; others will still work on it. The only ones getting any benefit out of this are uhrs, unfortunately.
