"You'd better have an iron constitution if you're going to take this job" Thought for the Day
One of the most emotionally draining information tech-related jobs I know of is that of reviewing uploaded social media photos and videos for Terms of Service violations involving violence, physical abuse of adults and children, and related areas. Not only are such employees bombarded with the most awful and horrifying of imagery, but they're faced with the Solomonic task of deciding where to draw the lines for which materials should be fully open, adult restricted, or totally rejected. To those workers who deal with this all day, every day, I salute you. --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein ([email protected]): http://www.vortex.com/lauren Founder: - Network Neutrality Squad: http://www.nnsquad.org - PRIVACY Forum: http://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: http://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Lauren's Blog: http://lauren.vortex.com Google+: http://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: http://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 / Skype: vortex.com _______________________________________________ pfir mailing list http://lists.pfir.org/mailman/listinfo/pfir
