Stop equating H1B with cheap labor. This is gross generalization. There certainly are some companies taking advantage of the program by paying H1B's less, but most of the people on H1B get paid the same as an American citizen would get

I don't understand how this is outrageous. The terms do not say that you can't have other means of distribution just that you can't link to them through the MS app or the listing page. Its like you selling a product on Amazon
