A rewritten PLR content, passed duplicates checks, can still be considered original content, even though the idea in the content is not original. A lot of stuff on internet are mostly rehashed/rewritten stuffs too.
If we can write a totally original content with good writing skills, we can get better payout by selling our services freelance instead of giving it to AC for 4-6 bucks.
furthermore, we are giving AC a good service too in my opinion, since we alrdy have a thread in here discussing what topic is best for them, and how to properly optimized the keywords so AC can get higher SERP too in certain niches. We benefit from higher payout.
The only bad thing is some people in BHW gives them some poorly written content that wastes everybody's time. At least give them readable content.
And also, we create many accounts on AC. That cant be helped since we all like to not pay the taxes.

And i dont like their double standard regarding non-US only receiving performance payment. Why does it seem like every US company practices this?
