Not going to argue with you — the post has a whole section on exactly this. In May, Project HH paid workers 20–50% of the hours they logged, mouse-movement idle detection quietly eats logged time, and Business Insider reported in March that suspended contractors were told in writing there's no appeal and the work isn't eligible for payment.
The one word I'd change is "scam." $100M has gone out to 100,000+ fellows, so it isn't a nobody-gets-paid operation — it's a real employer with a payment system that fails silently and has no appeal, which is arguably worse, because it looks legitimate right up until it isn't.
If you got shorted on a project, reply with which one and roughly when. I keep a month-by-month record of which ones are actually paying, and firsthand accounts are the only thing that makes it real.
Handshake AI is a fucking scam. They want to have you train their AI and not pay you
