  Good link!

  It is more fucked that the exploitation is targeted at kids, but it also really mirrors the general scammyness of the online economy at large (i.e. a gold rush with a few winners making it big and millions working for free hoping they’ll eventually tap in to a big ore that’ll make the platform rich and pay them a pittance).
