This is truly the pits.
Where is “there”?
Work where? What building did dad walk in to?
Who is “Utley”?
Regards,
CNN?
Facebook content editor. Florida shop.
So these are the people who put us in Facebook jail. I wound up there once because I referred to the gender confused as “trannies”.
Is this like one of those commercials where you have to go online for “the rest of the story”? Or in this case, the beginning?
Spending your days watching videos of people brutally killing animals, and even snuff films on children will have a high probability of psychological harm
Utley worked the overnight shift at a Facebook
content moderation site in Tampa, FL,
A contract house that does censorship for Facebook.
They view a lot of very nasty stuff as a job requirement in order to classify it. It is a sweatshop with high turnover.
I’d take a job out in the fields before one in a decrepit cubicle or huge open bay work area with 800 other poor wretches.
where you have to go online for the rest of the story? Or in this case, the beginning?
The beginning was simply character development.
I attempt to put up an executive summary.
If you find interesting, then spend some time.
...He watched videos of people playing with human fetuses, and says he learned that they are allowed on Facebook as long as the skin is translucent.
...Facebook began seeing a rash of videos that purportedly depicted organs being harvested from children. (It did not.)
...Nobodys prepared to see a little girl have her organs taken out while shes still alive and screaming. Moderators were told they had to watch at least 15 to 30 seconds of each video.
Cognizant in Tampa. they work for Facebook and are partly responsible for Content Moderation. The story is basically a day in the life of a Content Moderator who works there. They have to see all the really horrible videos and photos folks post. Animal abuse, child abuse, grotesque videos... it was a good read. No clue why anyone would subject themselves to that.
I do not believe you can descend into the Seventh Circle of Hell, and return the same person.
Worse, in my opinion, some are affected by the “normal” sewage the flows from Hollywood.
Many jokes about ‘unseeing’,but if I could push a button and unsee some of my past, I would do it.
And it has been forty-nine plus years.
I though I had started reading a novel.
It’s pretty obvious why Zuck spends 20+mil annually on personal security. He could be the most evil man on earth along with that ugly ass Sandberg.
...if I could push a button and unsee some of my past, I would do it.
I understand, been there, done that
