SOME PICTURES OF MINE (AN AMAZON WORKER PROCESSING AN ORDER AND A FOOD COURIER RIDING HIS BICYCLE) WERE CHOSEN TO ILLUSTRATE A LONG-FORM BY THE ITALIAN NEWSPAPER LA REPUBBLICA ENTITLED “IF YOU ARE THE SLAVE”, ON THE SUBJECT OF YOUNG FREELANCE WORKERS SUFFERING EXPLOITATION, LACK OF RECOGNITION AND DENIED RIGHTS IN THE GIG ECONOMY.

SO TRUE.

FOR EXAMPLE, THEY DIDN’T CREDIT THE IMAGES :)

SUCH DISREGARD FOR OUR WORK IS QUITE A STANDARD (AT LEAST IN ITALY), BUT I FOUND THE CASE PRETTY IRONIC.
