At least 10 alleged U.S.-based facilitators have been federally charged, including one active-duty member of the U.S. Army, for their alleged roles in hosting laptop farms, laundering payments and moving proceeds through shell companies. At least six other alleged U.S. facilitators have been identified in court documents but not named.
So they fired him just for being from north korea?
Discrimination
the problem was probably more about being suspected as an operative for north korea.
though i wish i knew what methods they used to make the guy appear like perfect hire if he actually is an operative, maybe it might be useful information to actually just get a job. Getting a job nowdays feels more like trying to “steal” yourself a place in society rather than just being part of society. Having a job is a privilege.
There’s the real black market niche I’d be willing to buy into.
“Pssst, hey buddy, I got this high paying job with good health plans, lots of vacation, and 100% remote… The only downside is that…”. “I GIVE NO FUCKS! JUST TELL ME WHO I HAVE TO KILL!”. “Woah there bud, we just need you to send some cash to North Korea and give us 5 stars on…”
“I WILL KILL ANYONE WHO GIVES YOU LESS THAN ALL OF THE STARS!”
i can even kind of think of how to manage something like that, it would just work on only with 100% remote work and would also require quite a lot of cooperation, competency and trust from the clients. and it would still require you to “acquire the goods”, as in get a job. But then you could share it with other people. So in the end multiple people would be pretending to be one person, but since the load is shared each could do multiple different “persons”.
I was originally imagining North Korea as being a basic job recruiter that could actually get you into interviews for a real job, but just black market because doing anything with North Korea is illegal.
But the other way they would just be normal contractors (still black market or course), which is the way most big companies are going anyway.
Of course, I really just want to know how they keep getting hired for jobs when I can’t even get a response or an interview.
hate to break it to you, most countries have trade embargoes against NK. this means you cannot contract work from NK because you would be committing international trade fraud.
contractor failed to disclose they were a NK national and thus resulted in their termination.
I know you’re probably joking, but this is the reality we live in.
Yes, a racist reality
trade embargoes have zero to do with race or nationality.
it however deals heavily in politics.
