This may sound like simple word play, but really, is it even possible to make money in an ethical way in the Western world today? It feels like someone somewhere is exploited whatever you do.

Low level jobs are typically ethical.

I see what you mean. What I mean is that we, without any doubt, exploit the Third world when we buy food, oil, metals, and whatnot from them, or exploit their labour force when they manufacture our goods in sweatshops. For instance, in my country most clothes are made in Asian sweatshops, and if you work in a clothing store you indirectly contribute to this exploitation.

I'm sorry, I just realized that I'm derailing your thread. Please accept my apologies.

Fair enough. Well, I can give you a tip which I really shouldn't give you. You can sell drugs in the legal greyzone, like kratom. You will probably cause little to no harm and actually help some people, the competition might be negligible (depending on which country you live in), and if you get caught you will probably only pay fines.

The real irony is that the best way to learn to be a criminal is to be incarcerated. Jail or prison is like school in that sense. Because the inmates teach eachother new crimes and how to avoid capture.

I was into blackhat activities when I was younger but I grew out of it as the internet became less secure. Plus I've been incarcerated before and it was terrible, I'm not trying to go back.

Selling drugs is not unethical but illegal.
There are many legal but arguably unethical ways to make money as well.

Hi OP. The most straight forward way to make money unethically is directly printing money with a money printer. You can add a money printer on this year's Santa's wish list. But in order to make your wish come true, you'd have to be a really good boy throughout this whole yr.

Or if you're tech-savvy enough, hack a cryptocurrency exchange platform. :devil: :heh: :blarg:

Plus I've been incarcerated before and it was terrible
Is that cuz you were forced to learn coding in prison? I read that coding classes are offered in some prisons that allegedly effectively reduced recidivism, in part due to prisoners find coding too brutal and don't wanna take more coding classes.

Hah, I'd love a free coding class. I've been coding since I was a kid anyways. I already know Javascript, C++, and C#.

brick you do any kernel hacking, i want to know if there's a code method to temporarily flip the supervisor bit on a qualcomm board ? arm/arm64, samsung, device.

I suppose the best way to make money unethically is to be a white male in america.

Lets not get racial with it please, you're asking a white male for help after all lol. Nearly anything can be done with the right set of code.

This really isn't the place to be exchanging dirty code though. Usually stuff like that isn't done for free either. Because coding is work after all, people expect to get paid when they work.

Small kernel hacking here and there, minor c stuff for shits and giggles, i fucking hate java. I did manage to get perl fully into android system by way of an armhf build of debian which was neat but not very useful otherwise. But solid skills nope. Ashamed to admit i tend to go script kiddie, but hey if it works it may be lame but it isn't stupid. I would've pm'd but it seemed inappropriate. I'll leave it there, sorry Close, didn't mean to hijack.

You need to learn C++ to be a big dog. I'll leave it at that.

Well unethical in one country can easily be criminal in another. I guess it depends on the different laws that we all face.

Well, I can't tell you about any truly unethical ways.
I suppose I can say I have a thing going with P2P lending and that it's going decent enough, although much slower than I would like it to.

edit: to clarify, if I were to explain in more detail, it would look like I'm asking for more money to make this bigger, and thus, faster, which would make this unethical.

Not strictly unethical, depending on who you ask, but drawing porn. Someone told me their friend charged $300 for a single piece. Someone else told me they've known people who make $2-3k a month doing it full time. Or make a porn game that caters to a niche fetish. One dude whose game I played way back when went from taking donations via PayPal to having his own online store where he sells merch with his game's branding. The weirder the fetish, the higher you can get away with charging, though you'll also be limiting your potential client pool.
