   @timnitGebru @CorioPsicologia Is this the same Meta that’s a partner of Social Web Foundation with the good folks at Mastodon GmbH and Pixelfed? Surely not because why would the good folks at Mastodon GmbH and Pixelfed partner with them? I mean, how bad can Meta be if good folks like that are willing to associate with them?

     Fasica Gebrekidan worked for 2 years as a content moderator for Meta via Sama in Nairobi, Kenya, until she was laid off for attempting to form a data workers’ union. She was moderating content related to #TigrayGenocide while being a victim of it at the same time. Imagine.
