>17 year old creates largest Covid-19 tracking site.
>Turns down $8 million to put ads up.
Did he do the right thing?
17 year old creates largest Covid-19 tracking site
He did what he wanted to do.
He probably gets more money from donations than from the ad offer which might fall through.
Yeah, there were probably some strings attached that would have taken away his oversight/control of the website. It's likely he's a concerned citizen who sees the patterns and understands that they're not adding up to any of the mainstream narratives. Hopefully, this website will help reveal what kind of fuckery is really afoot.
Ads will turn people away to the billion other graph websites.
Donations only is the best option.
is the website still up? What's the website
Yes. Techno-libertarian people like him made Linux and made the early Internet such a wonderful place.
Now look at it. It fucking sucks. His attitude needs to spread.
As a programmer I feel a bit Jelly. At the same time, all my friends are making dumb covid-related apps and not making a penny. I guess this guy is one of the few and he hit it big.
When he gets that government contract to implement the software into our 5g chips, he's going to be raking in that dough
"This looks extraordinarily bad."

I dont like the right or wrong paradigm bc it doesnt seem to be accurate. The reasons I like what he did may not be the reason he did it. One should be careful not to project their values on other people without evidence. ie I think what he did was a respectable and noble thing but he may not have done it for that.
this
he's smart
>Turns down $8 million to put ads up.
BASED!!!
nigger there ads on that site right now
>turns down 8 million
I’m thinking yeah
clearly didn't learn anything from google and facebok
>csgo
BASED
Actually my bad I meant to say no. No he did not do the right thing. He is retarded.
if his lawyer read the contract and it was shit then he absolutely did the right thing
Yes. He's waiting to sell out to China.
He's already funded by Jews... so meh
How the dicks does ((((he)))) pay for all that traffic in the first place? Hundreds of millions of requests on a 17 year old's pocket money?
Why would anyone go to that site when this superior one exists? gisanddata.maps.arcgis.com
kikes
mfw he makes $9000 per day in donations
I guarantee you that kid has a job lined up a (((google))) upon his 18th birthday.
He is easily going to make more money in the long term from doing the right thing now, as opposed to making his website look awful and shoeing away normies.
MAA?
he is an idiot
about to have depression level unemployment
turns down 8 million dollars
just enjoy your life, slave... eh bro, while pwediepie makes 8 trillion yelling at a computer game.
>Did he do the right thing?
nope
hosting a few kb of text and react code is super cheap. its videos, etc., that get pricey
This.
Rejecting greed is absolutely based.
problem is not storage or processing, it's traffic
BASED
So you’d turn down 8 million?
I would turn down 8 billion, too. Money is literally nothing
Especially considering there would be jewish tricks and strings attached
Why not make your own videos?
If it was just 8 million, no strings attached at all, and I'm not doing anything evil, sure I'd take the money.
>Karambit
Gay, the Falchion looks much better.
What a lying do gooder self righteous pompous ass you are.
what an idiot. do zoomers really not know how to use adblock?
But you can't accept the money if doing so would harm others, or cause the spread of misinformation.
Have sex incel
>Avi Schiffmann
hmmmm
user stop. This isn’t a morllaly righteous world. No karma exists and no heroes either.
Can it with the one-liners, will you? You should be kind to your fellow anons, and elaborately detail your posts and ideas, not fall to the same level of vitriol characteristic of our enemies
>Turns down $8 million to put ads up.
sauce?
Nobody wants to see my pee pee :(
Most money comes with strings.
My parents still hate me for turning down grant money. Turns out as a 17-year old back then, I'd never have seen a cent of it anyway.
I signed up for welfare and I spend all my fancy money on meals and drugs. Fuck saving money just to have it stolen by boomers.
But you still can't do evil in exchange for money, because then you have done evil, and you become as twisted as the kikes we so ridicule.
Think of all the things you could buy, fool. And sex.
hope his faggot website gets ddosed
Those numbers don't really add up. I'm sure people offered ads but it wasn't for 8mil. They made sure to put that part in for a nice virtue signal for the kid.
At least he plays CSGO, so hes not a complete faggot
If he is good at his job, why not.
People pay a lot for entertainment.
Again, it is fine to take money if it is the right thing to do. The kid in OP would have accepted the 8 million if there were no strings attached. Anyway, I implore all of you not to stoop to the levels of the midwits in this cesspool of banter, and to resist the demoralization and shilling beset upon this board.
>ncov2019.live
How did you guys not think of this immediately?
Donations are tax free, right?
Why not become a jew?
A company that can afford 8 million dollars on ads can afford lawyers to sue the teenager and seize the website
Shooter games are pretty boring imo, but to each their own. I can never get myself into the mood to play them, and I don't have a large enough desk anyway.
Sue him for what? Seize a rightfully acquired domain how? They couldn't even pull that off against archive.is despite all that has been hosted on it.
Yep he gave us freedom
Did he write some crawlers? pulling data off of Johns Hopkins?
>a jew
>turning down money
His self restraint must be that of legend
if a company pays enough, they don't need actual evidence to win
Then why is this site still up?
Interesting why him
Whelp, hes getting mossaded next week.
shill... getting a bit lazy are we?
If they had done in january when it all started they had a chance
This. I'm an indie author and have been staving off '''''''deals'''' from publishers from years.
I really would suggest young creators to remain independent no matter what. You NEVER get anything by selling out. There is more to be gained in life than money.
fpbp
There are hundreds of copy pasted projects like this, the kid got (((help))) to make his shine.
Lazy? If I am a shill, why do you not rise to the task of creating some elaborate rebuttal with which to BTFO me in every thread. You cannot do so, whether because I am correct, or because you lack the intellectual capacity to do so, or both, I do not know. But what I do know, is that your pathetic one-liner responses are a cancerous plague upon this board, you phoneposting baboon.
>You NEVER get anything by selling out.
not even 2 billion dollars?
>you can learn underwater basket weaving for all you want
He probably posts here
You would do ill by many for the sake of your own self-gain? Who are you to criticize another? Create for the sake of creating, and perhaps you will be successful, or less so, but you will always be able to make do. This is what temptation is, after all.
Of course.
Pretty based to turn down so much money. I wouldn't have but good for him.

>turning down 8 million from something that will go away within ~ 1 year
>turning down 8 million that could have been dumped into the market when it's at record lows
>turning down 8 million that could have turned into 10 million in two years and returned 2% dividends @ ~160k/year, enough to live on without doing jack
Yeah, I'm thinking he's retarded
he looks like a Jew
>schiffmann
I am confused, could he actually be a non hand rubbing jew?
a bit of an overreaction there
JIDF really have gotten lax with their recruitment standards. Are they really letting clowns like you post? You could comprise the entire operation.
>Teenager won't sell his work and soul to the eternal jew
>Did he do the right thing?
Of course he did, Chang.
