@fugueish@infosec.exchange Here in the "Global South" [blech] we also got cheap ride-hail and delivery services; are not cheap any more but are still a lot safer and more convenient than the corrupt criminal taxi system. Have improved the quality of life in that way. Not sure about the invisible underpaid workers. The visible gig workers report much higher satisfaction than with traditional jobs, but are much more precarious.

@fugueish@infosec.exchange Generalizing about a "Global South" is always misleading. My experiences here have little to do with what effect these changes have had on Mexico, Afghanistan, Indonesia, or Botswana. Maybe is as you say some of those places.
