Just to be clear, each contract that Teleperformance has opperates with differerent rules and pay scale / entitlements etc. If you were working one of their other contracts, you may not even be in the same building as the others. So the Apple ai camera thing is probably specific to Apple as I know a few people who work there in Colombia and don't have cameras when they work from home.

It’s the opposite which is why the title is misleading - the “Apple ai camera thing” is happening on other Teleperformance contracts but not Apple. The idea that there is an “Apple ai camera thing” is just the implication from the (misleading) title but it doesn’t exist. From the article: > Apple spokesperson Nick Leahy said that the company “prohibits the use of video or photographic monitoring by our suppliers and have confirmed Teleperformance does not use video monitoring for any of their teams working with Apple.” The article also never makes the claim that the cameras are observing people doing work on an Apple contract - it says that it is Teleperformance who ‘has contracts with Apple’, but not that this is used on the Apple contract.

  We're not reading the same article bud. It clearly states this is the Apple account and that Apple UK had the same issues with their Albanian branch. > a Bogota-based worker on the Apple account ... said that she signed the contract ...because she feared losing her job. > the new contract, first issued in March. The contract allows monitoring by AI-powered cameras in workers’ homes, voice analytics and storage of data collected from the worker’s family members, including minors > the contract, a copy of which NBC News has reviewed You think NBC are gona headline an article risking defamation when they have a contract that would or would not state if this is a legitimate proposal??? Your comment reads like a complete misdirection.
