Enter a hidden third world shadow industry of digital cleaning, where the internet rids itself of what it doesn‘t like. A typical “cleaner” must observe and rate thousands of often deeply disturbing images and videos every day, leading to lasting psychological impacts. Yet underneath their work lie profound questions around what makes an image art or
propaganda and what defines journalism. Here we meet five “digital scavengers” among thousands of people outsourced from Silicon Valley whose job is to delete “inappropriate” content of the net.
