I'm trying to find an interview of one of these people describing what it's like on the other end. It wasn't a pleasant story. These folks are employed by the likes of Facebook, Photobucket etc... Most are outsourced, obviously, and they all have very high turnover.
- RossM 13y agoI seem to remember reading an article about people doing this at Google(?) in a pretty poor state. Edit: I think it was this one: http://www.buzzfeed.com/reyhan/tech-confessional-the-googler-who-looks-at-the-wo http://www.buzzfeed.com/reyhan/tech-confessional-the-googler...
- eksith 13y agoYep! That's the one. Thanks. A pretty unpleasant job no matter what angle you look at it. I remember this bit the most : "Google covered one session with a government-appointed therapist — and encouraged me to go out and get my own therapy after I left." This is the down side to 'abstracting away' the dirty end of filtering. I'm looking forward to a day when this can be properly automated, but, considering the ever-changing nature of erotica to begin with, I don't see that happening any time soon.
