They’re not exploiting them, it is a function of not having really strong safety nets or even UBI. So a lot of people are desperate to survive and keep a roof over their head. And technology makes money flow upwards to the rich and corporations. Soon with AI employment is going to become pity-employment. Make-work jobs. Because people just can’t seem to trust other people to be charge of their own time and have free money. Overton window in USA is not there yet. So capital will find ridiculous ways to exploit labor via the desperation of the masses. Maybe gig economies and race to the bottom for service providers as out-of-work people flood the market with useless crap, who knows.
