I agree with you since you use the qualifier "illegal". By intentional design, most things that are illegal are unfair (if designed well, which the h1b program is far from). However I feel your sentiment is directed towards "legal via loophole" immigration as well, which is not illegal. It would be disadvantageous to the displaced indigenous worker if they were unwilling/unable to compete with the migrant worker (including cost-value proposition to employers via wage level), but fair, if the migrant worker legally arrived. While the indicted in this article did visa fraud, the majority of migrant tech workers are brought totally above board although at significantly lower wages.
