Well, they were under 14 years old - I'm not sure they'd be making more than sweat-shop wages anywhere in Korea, and they didn't seem to have a choice in whether or not they did it, which is why it seemed like a sweat-shop kind of deal to me. They claimed that they worked for someone else who was much older, so I can only assume that person made more money than they did and underpaid them.

In the end it, it's all speculation, but with an interesting point - online farming is slowly making a noticeable world-wide market, and the lack of clarity in (specifically) U.S. laws now is not likely to continue... especially once Americans figure out a way to create a successful business model out of farming(something that's probably been elusive up until now, because of the value of the dollar in other world countries).

However, I do believe it is coming.
