Recommended Watch: Invisibles – exploitation in the digital world of work | DW Documentary (youtube.com)
Services from Amazon, Uber and Airbnb are available at the touch of a screen. Yet who are the workers who fulfill our wishes when we click? How much do they earn? Do their jobs have benefits? This documentary delves into the world of workers behind the apps.

Companies like Facebook, Amazon, Deliveroo, Booking.com and Tinder all have in common that their employees are forming a new, exploited class of digital economy labor. The tens of thousands of people who work in the app sector earn low wages. The filmmakers look at the daily lives of "clickworkers" - the men and women who deliver packages and food, or work high-stress content management jobs for little money.

    Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst The "precariat" is the new proletarian group who lives in precarious jobs, mostly hidden, digital labour rewarded by the clicks or the profit of an app. Not everything is rosy in the digital world. Nice eye opening documentary.
