      Closer to MLMs for white STEM dudes. With the same result, too - a lot of those idiots get really ruined financially. It's a bit sad.

        A real country would protect people from this kind of scam and have the people who perpetrated it gulag'd Or at least revoke all of their internet credentials.

          haha yeah, if only there was some sort of like credit score, like a rating tracked by the government for people who are likely to run scams or use untrustworthy business practices. maybe like a social credit system or something. Oh well!!

            Yeah I'm still not onboard with having the head teacher hold your permanent record over you for the rest of your life. I don't know much about how it works in practice but it seems ripe for both abuse and unintended bureaucratic consequences. Do you have any reading on how it works in practice?
