State of labour & tech in #Africa: Contrary to popular belief, online content creators are not always having fun. They suffer from psychosocial issues, underpayment/non-payment, cyberbullying, financial instability, compromised physical & digital privacy, data theft #FIFAfrica23

There is ongoing digital colonialism by the big techs. Content moderators in #Africa don't get the same pay as their colleagues in US or Europe, they handle the most gruesome content, operate without contracts, sent to foreign countries without paperwork - Nerima Wako #FIFAfrica23

Content moderators in Africa don't get psychosocial support despite moderating the most violent content, work for longer hrs, forced to sign non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) - not even their families should know that they work for big techs - Nerima Wako, ED Siasa Place #FIFAfrica23

Labour unions in Africa have been urged to strengthen locally and further unionise at a continental level to leverage and challenge any unfair agreements by the big multinationals. The excuse of mass employment shouldn't stand #FIFAfrica23
