Dispute Over Fate of Kenyan Workers Who Were Exposed to Intimate Meta Ray-Bans Recordings

Chris Vallance, BBC News: In February, workers at the company, Sama, told two Swedish newspapers they had witnessed glasses users going to the toilet, and having sex. Less than two months later, Meta ended its contract with Sama, which Sama said would result in 1,108 workers being made redundant. Meta says it’s because Sama did not meet its standards, a criticism Sama rejects. A Kenyan workers’ organisation alleges Meta’s decision was caused by the staff speaking out. It is abhorrent yet common to treat essential contractors and employees as disposable. Over a thousand people will be out of a job yet still be haunted by what they have been exposed to. ⌥ Permalink
