    Are you serious they pay people to troll? Kind of make me wonder how much and is it even worth it.

      Definitely. In a lot of developing countries with basic internet access these people can actually make good livings doing that. As long as they’re skill in the foreign language is adequate enough. Though today a lot of that is being taken over by basic low-end generative machine learning models. Something else false information faster than it takes to debunk it.

        So if I learn a couple languages and put a post on craiglist that I am a willing troll. I will get hired?

          Not unless you live in a country with a low standard and cost of living. And not likely even then. Because even at a Payday they generally work ed for larger businesses and weren’t a freelance Craigslist sort of thing. That and here in the United States there’s too much free competition to really be effective for them to pay anyone over here as well.

            Funny that you mention payday and am sitting here in the hospital eating one.
