Earlier this month, Motherboard uncovered an exposed Amazon-linked panel that contained internal documents, reports, and an online tool that laid out in stark detail how much the company was monitoring some of its workers' social media posts. The documents showed that Amazon corporate employees received regular reports on discussions among Flex drivers on nominally private pages, and were using this information to, in part, monitor drivers, "planning for any strike or protest against Amazon." Flex Drivers are independent contractors or gig workers who deliver items for Amazon and Wholefoods in more than 50 cities in the U.S., as well as several other countries.Do you know anything else about companies monitoring workers’ social media posts?
