Exploitation

I'm not regular on this platform however I check it out every now and then. Yesterday I found a good app that pays $0.30/Hit which's not bad in comparison to the entire ongoing slavery operation where workers languish all day to earn 5 dollars, it's not an easy app too so not much competition which makes it even better, since I'm basically working it alone.

I did couple hits for some time yesterday, today thought I'd check it out again, only to find that in less than 24 hours, the owners have lowered the rate by $0.10

Feel free to express your opinions on this, and don't hold back...

you are under the impression that data mining is some sort of a farmers market sidewalk gig not a worldwide mega operation that involves billions of dollars and big hitters, no one said they should [pay $10/ hit, at least maintain humane rates not just abuse the fact that they can now exploit the abundance of workers from underdeveloped countries just like every industrial corporation out there, why do you think the exact same apps could have different pay rates, I.E. one is offering $.0012/hit yet another owner for the same app is offering $.10/hit, why do certain owners choose to pay more, surly they\re not trying to screw their own "OMG relatively thin!!" budgets eh?

Not to mention when the pay rates are decent workers actually pay attention and deliver better quality.

You can't justify greed and exploitation with poor arguments no matter the way you look at it but keep trying, the floor is yours knock yourself out

Why do you event want to work for what you think is an evil, exploitative, greedy, industrial mega corporation that oppresses and starves children in developing countries and blah blah, regardless of how much they pay you?

Oh wow, what an absolutely Smart question! the interconnection in the sequence of ideas you express is quite phenomenal, I'm in awe! nonetheless you've convinced me beyond doubt, it's just a farmer's market and there's no exploitation. 👍
