Army of writers, content providers, photographers for free

Picture yourself.   Being an enthusiastic computer blogger king wannabee.  You want to make a dent in the universe ast the great Steve Jobs has motivated zillions to be in the computer age.

So you subscribe to a blogging platform.  And then start posting.   You have been given all the support: to upload pictures, videos, to edit your posts, links, reading materials,  maps, GPS, library of videos.    You are provided with metrics, and feedback on how well you are doing.   Over the course of the years what have you accomplished for the blogging platform:

    1.  Thousands of pictures with description and location 

    2.  Thousands of articles.  Content that are searchable.  You have added hundreds, thousands of

          articles that are searchable expanding their search engine encouraging more clicks and searches

You and millions of others are doing that daily, uploading millions of articles and pictures, expanding the WWW.  You are lucky iif you are monetized because you are monetized (if you reach the number of subscribers and viewers).  For the million others, what do they get.?

The platform does not need to employ and pay:   1   writers  2.  photographers.     They get it for free.  In the process they get to be the biggest company on earth earning zillions.  

They simply match and meet the needs of the writers and the wannabees to be popular, and have high number of views and clicks

These platforms should thank and honor their employees.   Their supporters and workers worldwide

What a great meeting of opportunity and availability of infrastructures

   

Pirates of Silicon Valley

 There was a saying that "Artists copy masters steal"  meaning that most "original innovation"  or inventions are stolen.  So in the movie "Silicon Valley" how two great master in computer were into this game.  About OS, and the windows being a copy from Apples icons.

And then lately we see at Netflix a case involving claims that Google Earth was stolen from  Terra Vision? We see how great lawyers and expert witness (Bryan Anderson) settled the claims in favor of  Google

Netflix on Google vs Terra Vision

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY EVERY ONE

 HAPPY FATHERS DAY!

Scarce viewers/readers

 Daily there are suckers born every where.   PT Barnaum  Ever wondered why the founder of a leading soc medias last name sounds the same?

There is no need for more victims and sufferers from scams.

Hence this blog.  However, it is noticed that there is a scarcity of readers.   Not forewarned, not armed.  Hence there are more victims.

How can we increase readership of this blog? (so that there will be less scamming)

Scam proofing; an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure....

Maging handa; mauna ng pag iisip vs scammer. Be smart, not a victim

Broken dream, hope for getting rich quick?

Is it broken?

 

Scams in on line transactions

 I can cite several examples I personally experienced or told to me by relatives or friends.

1.  Non delivery of items that have been prepaid.

     The first order was good   The seller met me personally at MoA.  It was a carbon fiber OEM of an

     Italian bike.   He did not deliver the second order cf wheelset   It was a P25,000 loss.  Going to court

     legal remedies would not amount to anything because of high acceptance fee.  There was a terrible

     typhoon that visited their place.   Divine Justice?

2.  Non appearance of sellers or buyers.  Very frequent.   Of Indian origin/descent

3.  Wrong item delivered.  Read carefully what is being sold.  They put the wrong picture and thinks you

     are ordering what is on the picture

4.  Misleading price -  There are options in the picture what the price covers.

5.  Shoddy poor quality products.    Sometimes the posted product is a fake one and of poor quality.  The seller gypped the original product maker, and gypped you too.

6.  The pay first do not open policy on the spot.  I wish they relaxed this.  You have to pay first for

     COD and you cant return on the spot.  You have to spend separately

What to do next:

1  Avoid online transaction

2.  Blacklist (in private) those who are scam perpetrators

3.  Read comments, seek reommendation re store.  Buy only from reputable and tried and tested 

    stores.

4.  Read read, research what you are buying.
