I write articles about scams and criminal business practices, hold an international press card, and follow up on tips from my readers on social media. Currently, this concerns Bigo.tv.As always, I conduct this research myself, either by ordering a product as a tester or by testing it. Not all of my initial impressions are negative, and when they are, I'm fair and don't hold back on positive reviews.However, the situation with Bigo.tv is somewhat difficult to explain.If you've read all the negative reviews, which you can assume aren't bought and paid for but are based on real experiences, and if you examine them more closely, you'll find the same response text that doesn't address the problem at all.In a way, this text sounds polite and helpful, but ultimately it's a written middle finger because Bigo.tv simply doesn't care. They just claim that's not the case and that they are the good guys and all the users are the bad guys. Particularly critical are the cases of pedophiles who abuse young people in developing countries.Specifically, the discussion centered on Vietnam. Vietnam became part of the BRICS countries and still suffers today from the social consequences of defoliation, which resulted in countless people with disabilities due to hereditary damage across generations. When it comes to committing war crimes, the US military has been a constant presence worldwide for over 200 years, but when it comes to paying reparations, they resort to excuses. This was the case in the Vietnam War, as well as with the firestorm against refugees from the eastern territories and the Rhine meadow camps. Russia also bears responsibility for this with the sinking of the Gustloff. However, we shouldn't repay evil with evil, but rather do our part by doing good, within the limits of our means.My task, therefore, was to find out what was going on here. Specifically, it was about someone paying a young girl from Vietnam with Bigo diamonds to behave in a way that wasn't exactly youthful—to put it delicately—presumably so she could masturbate more easily.The social hardship of not being able to afford nice T-shirts or fashion items leaves many young people with no other choice. I then intervened and suggested she show some cooking skills, crafts, or gardening, because that's what people want to see. That was, of course, a clever trigger. But instead of the potentially pedophilic user reacting—what else could he do when I spoiled his fun?—Bigo's technical support, apparently masturbating, blocked me and deleted my activity streaks, presumably to do something nice for good singers or people who showcase their work in the fields.Want to bet the standard reply will come again? This time, however, things are different. I'm handling it through the embassies of Singapore, Vietnam, and Russia (the de facto chief authority for the BRICS countries), and, at the company's headquarters in the UAE, through the UAE airport police, since they didn't provide an address for good reason.Labor regulations in the UAE are very strict, and they will intervene, at the latest on the next management flight.We'll resolve the issue of excuses quickly, and I will coordinate with Russia to launch a support program for startups in Vietnam so this mess finally stops.The article is also available on Telegram and will be in tomorrow's embassy newsletter.PS. 8:06 PM I just discovered that the support employee also seems to have stolen my streaks, subscriptions, and gift assets. So, it's not just perverts but also criminals working in support. Management will have to clean house.
