Using a tool to make something easier does not disqualify people for me. Actually, I'd rather hire someone who uses a hammer to put a nail in the wall over someone who uses his hand "because he can".

Most of them work remotely for companies in yet another country and are thus able to happily hack away on their laptops without much interaction with locals. The ones who really worked with locals where doing unskilled jobs (old school work & travel). This is at least the pattern I have observed in 3 years in Africa, Caribbean and South America.
