Fake isn't always a bad thing unless it mentions credentials you're not trained for

i just watched a video on Fake Diplomas and BA Degrees being exposed by some news worthy research team , but what about people with the experience but little to none records of said experience like schooling background , what if its just like me with 20 yrs experience fixing computers and installing windows , finding drivers etc , Hands on experience only , how could i ever expect people to trust me with their computers to fix , without a diploma or BA in the subject , so the law does hinder people in some respects even honest and trust worthy people

I've done a lot of computer work and most of the people I worked with don't have any certifications or degrees. That piece of paper doesn't mean they can be trusted.

That trust is earned as you do good work. A good reputation is worth more than a piece of paper.

@AcidBurn true , i've watched videos on so called Qualified technicians like the Geek Squad and other places that fix computers and they rip off people quite often , removing parts and putting shittier ones in , saying they need a new motherboard or hard drive when there's really nothing wrong with them , the watch team even send a computer in and purposely loosened the hard drive wire and this wasn't even seen during the technicians inspection

@FurryFace geek squad is a scam. I know someone that works there. "we just google everything"
