Former employee is suing YouTube over post-traumatic stress disorder
More specifically, it is a former employee who is suing YouTube for developing depression and post-traumatic stress disorder due to his duties, i.e. viewing thousands of reported videos. According to lawyers, Google has not done enough to protect the mental health of its moderators, who spend more than 4 hours a day evaluating the website's graphical content. We are talking about the same law firm, run by Joseph Saveri, which in 2018 sued Facebook on behalf of one of the moderators in a similar case - then the victim received compensation in the amount of USD 52 million!
