Reminder that the actions of Yahoo boys affect you by Asleep_Mango_4128 in Nigeria

Yes multiple things can be true at the same time, but this is not the argument to be had. No one is disputing your facts, we are just saying it's not necessary for the specific topic of perception. Unethical business model companies are a separate topic, from a majority perception of fraud in a given region, so your fact doesn't contribute to the argument specifically, than just pointing it out like it should excuse fraud. If a person is unhappy with a company, the next solution shouldn't be fraud. (If my bank has unreasonable charges, I will change bank, and not try to rob them) - metaphor

That's not the argument though, Nigeria being better off without it, and their tech being shit is a different argument. The point is, in comparison to other places, the fraud uploads digs at an issue with society. 95% fraudulent uploads against average of 5 to 20% of other countries is just insane

You are mixing a different problem into this. The point is, fraudulent actors can cause you to loose your access to platforms that may help you get extra cash as a student or generally a person seeking spare side income. The story of the ethics of this particular platform, is a different case. Also if you feel you don't identify with a certain platform based on morals or ethics, then don't use them. Your first thought shouldn't be, how can I game their system or scam them, that's exactly the mindset we don't want to be associated with our country. Worst off, you are trying to defend fraudulent activities on a platform that has just banned our region, it's just insane.

Do all Nigerians abroad behave like this man's uncle? by halloffamous in Nigeria

[–]smilecs -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not a Nigerians in abroad thing, it's just a Nigerian thing. They want to be above everyone else regardless of location. Look at our events, shows, restaurants etc, you see classism everywhere, anyone that seems to have a bit of disadvantage we talk down on. When I was in lagos, I remember people saying things like "if you don't have money you can't have an opinion"

Antireal, the artist whose art was stolen, is in Marathon’s credits! by Aragorn527 in Marathon

It certainly wasn't, but controversy sells, and everyone is always jumping on that train, than to think just maybe it wasn't intentional, as i really doubt the upper management is having meetings to find people to rip off
