Daniel Motaung was paid $2.20/hour by Meta to watch beheadings and child abuse.
As a result, he suffers from diagnosed PTSD.
Now he's suing Meta for damaging his mental health.
Meta is outsourcing abuse and trauma to the Global South.
Just one more reason we all need to kick Big Social to the curb!
