Google exploits child labor with logo contests
I’m not sure you can get any lower than this. Google exploits child labor with logo contests on their “doodle 4 google” contest.
Welcome to Doodle 4 Google, a competition where we invite K-12 students to play around with our homepage logo and see what new designs they come up with. This year we’re inviting U.S. kids to join in the doodling fun, around the intriguing theme “What I Wish for the World.”
They make it seem so happy, so nice, so … free. And free is what it is: Free child labor. Stay classy, Google, stay classy.
