USA & India Tech Human Trafficking
Irrespective of political affiliations, human trafficking is a grave concern within the tech industry. I urge you to view this recent incident in the USA as an example: [link to YouTube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yCal4kCL3m0] Additionally, here is a document shedding light on the issue of human trafficking in the USA tech industry: [link to document - https://gamma.app/docs/The-Reality-of-USAUKIndia-Tech-Industry-A-Journey-of-Exploitation-ef0xr41n65cu2y9?mode=doc] Many tech workers in the tech field, especially in the USA, U.K., and India (including H1B holders and international students), face these distressing challenges. Within the tech industry, numerous individuals endure exploitation, being used as sex slaves, becoming targets for the aggression of mentally unstable tech managers (referred to as 'psychotherapy happiness'), purposely decreasing testosterone levels (easy to control),religion mafia, and becoming subjects of social experiments. #tech #apple #amazon #google #capitalone #paypal #astrazeneca #Facebook #jpmc #twitter #Tesla An unfortunate reality is that the Indian Prime Minister Modi,Chandra Babu Naidu,KCR,Congress,BJP,Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy,Democrats,Republicians are allegedly backed by this Mafia. It's imperative that we encourage political parties to transition towards crowd funding instead of relying on financial support from businesses and affluent individuals. #humantrafficking #java #scala #python #ml #ai #hadoop #bigdata #democrats #republicans
