Is it really fair and just, though? Is it fair, for example, for a business financed with Silicon Valley money, leveraging Californian infrastructure, enjoying US legal protections, to offer Americans a wage that only meets the needs of developers in Nigeria or Bosnia? If my money doesn't go as far in the US as it would in India, I'm being penalized for simply being born in the wrong place. Who do you think will take these jobs? In my opinion this is woke-washed outsourcing, and US-based developers should be boycotting any business that does this.
