Oft wird die #ITBranche als verhältnismäßig privilegiert dargestellt.
Sogenannte #DatenarbeiterInnen, wie zum Beispiel #ContentModerators die in Subunternehmen in Deutschland im Auftrag von #Meta / #Facebook arbeiten, entwickeln durch die Arbeit massive #PsychischeProbleme.

Das Projekt der @data.workers.inquiry deckt in einer Podcast-Episode (deutsch+englische Untertitel) die belastenden #Arbeitsbedinungen auf.

»#Musk's #XTwitter has a fraction of rivals' #contentmoderators, #EU says: X's 2,294 EU content moderators compared with 16,974 at Google's YouTube, 7,319 at Google Play and 6,125 at TikTok.« reuters.com/technology/musks-x #tech #media

I guess a basic question is: how many people are employed by #Bluesky? The reporting I've seen indicates it's about 20, but it's a few months old.

How many of them are #ContentModerators? Or are they farming out moderation to other firms, like #Facebook does?

Or are they just hoping users flag all the things?

Graphic and disturbing media.

How are people processing such material? What protections might be put in place to protect people from vicarious trauma and other harms, and what is the ultimate benefit of doing this work?

"My first video, it was a man committing suicide... there was a two- or three-year-old kid playing next to him. After the guy hanged himself, after about two minutes, the child notices something is wrong," said the 30-year-old South African, recalling the youngster's heartwrenching response.

@RonaldTooTall that's because the #SpaceKaren #MuskRat literally fired 200+ #ContentModerators in #Germany under blatantly #illegal terms, and they mostly did the heavylifting #moderation...

Alle denen ihre Masto-Admins am Herzen liegen und die wissen wollen wie Social Media wirklich funktioniert, sei der Film sehr ans Herz gelegt.

Facebook just sacked, and blacklisted, all 260 content moderators at its office in Nairobi, Kenya. I've just signed the petition to call Mark Zuckerberg out and demand the sackings are reversed. Pls add your name too:

Fascinating post by @codesections that highlights the pressures facing Mastodon moderators as new users flood the platform. Folks should consider that on a decentralized/federated platform, there is huge variance in the proportion of mods/users across instances.
