Moderator Who Watched Hours of Traumatic Videos Sues TikTok for Failing to Protect Her Mental Health The former content moderator says she has developed panic attacks and depression. She also has a hard time sleeping and experiences horrific nightmares. A former content moderator for TikTok is suing the social media giant and its parent company, ByteDance, for reportedly failing to take measures to protect her mental health after she watched countless hours of traumatic videos involving cannibalism, r*pes, animal mutilation, and suicides, among numerous other disturbing activities.
She? Who could have guessed?
Good for her! Content mods on TicTok and Facebook should be earning six figure salaries. Trust me, you donβt ever want to see half the stuff they have.
She deserves to win. Good for her. Content moderation is a terrible job and needs more attention to the negative impact it causes.
