I've been working for myself for over a decade doing random projects for clients while also doing my own thing. My resume looks awful and the job market is trash. If be willing to take a job as a jr developer and work my way up (or a sys admin).

I used to run one of the world's largest ebook piracy websites but want to put that life behind me. Recently work came across my desk to create tens of thousands of accounts on a well respected website so they could more easily scrape it.

I just want a traditional job, but I also want to support my family and $4000 for a months work

If I were you, I'd probably try looking at companies working in the web scraping and reverse engineering fields, who might even appreciate the skills even if they were acquired in a, let's just say, "different" way.

There's nothing immoral about scraping a website. Best of luck to you!

The secret is knowing that companies actually want people like you, with the real world blackhat experience, because you know how the game works in practise not just theory.
