Checking on the Progress of Content Moderators in Africa
['Justin Hendrix']
The Tech Policy Press Podcast
In the spring of this year, more than 150 moderators announced the formation of the African Content Moderators Union, which advocates for better pay and working conditions, and a lawsuit against Meta is working its way through Kenya’s courts. Remember, in the country that we are in currently, there's a lot of corruption per se, so with the heat that is happening with the work that we did as content moderators internationally, so the companies, the outsourcing companies, they came together to fight now us, I'd say, the whistleblowers or the people who are advocating for proper working conditions for the content moderators.
