American kids larping as maoists don't like China to be criticized because they idolize a foreign power in reaction to the misery of their political landscape. It's a coping mechanism.
It's Kenyan issue first and foremost. Lack of labour protections sucks and the fact that people fear to lose these shitty jobs is telling.
Kenya has long been a data labor hub for U.S. tech giants like Meta and OpenAI.
Also as article mentions, US companies has been doing the same thing.
