So whatever harm the Kenyans have saved us from, doesn’t that cancel out by exposing them to it?


That's not proportional, by design even. The whole game here is to do a small amount of work and multiply the gains by an infinite number of results from people using the bot.

That's always the game with any kind of technology. So no, having a few people experience something bad so billions can avoid experiencing anything bad ever does not cancel out.
