An interesting look at content moderators who review the worst things people put onto the internet, and how becoming desensitised to such content might affect their own sense of morality. The concept was super intriguing but the execution felt very rushed. There were a lot of different topics and themes covered that could have had more time spent on them, and the open ending felt anticlimactic and unfinished, like the author just didn’t know how to end the book.

Very abrupt ending. I definitely think more things could have been elaborated on and more details about the job could have been exposed. It was a gripping story but ultimately let me down.

ps. I wish I could read the book in its original language.

Better than I expected. A short punchy read, even if less about content moderation ans more about the effects of it on people. Super dark and interesting.
