It sucks to be seven years old and work in a textile factory, and they totally get screwed. So we chose to ban that. Slavery is another labor practice we've banned. Not sure what your point is about freelance writers.

Freelance writer are essentially gig workers and therefore slaves or underage factory workers according to you bizarrely nonsensical analogy
