TODO: briefly describe
TODO: structure the goals and what we want to say
TODO: explain logistic details (e.g. we will publish our emails/letters on a public website/tumblr)
Goals:
- opening communication BOTH ways, meaning we end up with a two-way conversation going back and forth somehow
- a response from Mr. Bezos would be awesome too :)
- more resources for Turkers? what would those be?
- presenting to media the truth about Turkers
- We don't all live in developing countries
- We’re not all unskilled
- We’re not all making $1.45/hour
- We’re not all Turking for beer money
- Etc.
What we want to say:
- Turkers are human beings, not algorithms, and should be marketed accordingly
- Turkers should not be sold as cheap labour, but instead skilled, flexible labour which needs to be respected
- Turkers need to have a method of representing themselves to Requesters and the world via Amazon (not sure what that could be)
