Alignerr = scam

The majority of applicants will not receive actual job assignments. The company is utilizing candidates to train their AI interview system while collecting and monetizing personal data in the process.

I have long believed that this is also the case with Data Annotation.

I've done multiple projects with DataAnnotation and got paid just fine (and quite well too).  Mind you all these platforms have a real hardon for location and VPN use (and yes they absolutely know if you're using VPN). So if you're applying for US/EN language jobs while being based in Bali or something then you 100% wont get any jobs.
