    But but but… they’re USAian and thus better than foreign services that do the same. Also, they are “job providers” so we can’t fine them too harshly

    US justice system probably.

  From that article, it sounds like they can use the “we asked users to install it, and paid them” to wiggle out of things.

  Not saying that should be allowed, because this is shady AF.
