Yet Kayleigh is good at her job, and she finds in her colleagues a group of friends-even a new girlfriend-and for the first time in her life, her future seems bright.īut soon the job seems to change them all, shifting their worlds in alarming ways. Kayleigh and her colleagues spend all day watching horrors and hate on their screens, evaluating them with the platform's ever-changing moderating guidelines. Her task: review offensive videos and pictures, rants and conspiracy theories, and decide which need to be removed. So she takes a job working for a social media platform whose name she isn't allowed to mention.

To be a content moderator is to see humanity at its worst-but Kayleigh needs money.
