- schnebbau 2y agoWhich part? Mechanical turk is an Amazon service for crowdsourcing work, and Africa has cheap IT literate labor so would be a good source for this type of work.
- mtmail 2y agoCheap IT literate labor can be found around the world (also thanks to Mechanical Turk and similar services), no need to single out one region.
- qeternity 2y agoWhat is the issue with singling out a region with a factual statement? It wasn't a pejorative comment. Africa and SE Asia have huge labor forces that perform this work. People really need to stop trying so hard to be offended.
