What is WhiteHat JR?

It teaches coding to kids of age 6 charging upto 1500$ for 100 clases.

To sum up, this is very high amount from any standar, parents take loan to fund this. Second, they use black hat marketing tactics claiming 10year old student now earns million of dollars.

I'm not sure if there tactics are even legal. Platforms like FB, Google should fact-check on ads.

Seriously how can you believe a kid is earning 10mn$ a year. And has no mention anywhere on the web.

And they are charging $1500 just to read out scripts along with freely available code.org tutorials

I know a 12yo Indian kid who is maintaining Ubuntu Unity. Though, I am pretty sure he didn't study at WhiteHatJr.

You should say "by not studying at WhiteHatJr, it enabled him to be a maintainer of Ubuntu Unity". ;-)

unless you're posting names/social media handles i'm guessing you're a whitehat jr employee.

i pre-emptively apologise, don't sue me.

I, by no means support such sleazy company.

The original post reads "he didn't study at WhiteHatJr". I think it was a satire, as I found it was a pretty funny remark. I believe you are pointing your finger at the wrong person.

actually i was just continuing the satire but it didn't come across as such :) que sera sera
