Kenyan Facebook moderators accuse Meta of not negotiating sincerely_我的网站
一 | 香港8月14日电（记者郑静霞）香港特区政府14日表示，由于今年上半年实际经济表现好于预期以及短期前景向好，将2026年全年实质本地生产总值增长预测由2.5%至3.5%上调为3.5%至4.5%。 特区政府表示，得益于对外贸易蓬勃和内部需求强韧，二季度香港经济继续蓬勃扩张。
二 | NAIROBI, Kenya -- The lawyer representing 184 former Facebook content moderators based in Kenya who sued the site's parent company, Meta, over working conditions and pay told the judge Monday that Meta has not been sincere in trying to reach an out-of-court settlement as agreed in the last court session.Lawyer Mercy Mutemi said the talks had collapsed and the former moderators want to proceed with a contempt of court case against Meta.“The petitioners gave it their best effort. They attended every mediation. The respondents asked for information which we gave them. They kept saying they would get back to us by a certain date but only got back to us at the end of last week with a very small amount that cannot even take care of the petitioners’ mental health,” she told the court. She described Meta as “not genuine.”The moderators were employed via Sama, a San Francisco subcontractor that describes itself as an ethical AI company, to work in its hub in the capital, Nairobi. Their job entailed screening user content in 12 African languages and removing any uploads deemed to breach Facebook’s community standards and terms of service.Some of the petitioners have told The Associated Press that their job required them to watch horrific content for eight hours a day that overwhelmed many of them while being paid 60,000 Kenyan shillings, or $414 a month. They accused Sama of doing little to ensure post-traumatic professional counseling was offered. They are seeking $1.6 billion in compensation.Meta and Sama lawyers told the court they thought the mediation was making good progress, with long hours involved, until the moderators’ lawyer wrote to them in protest.Justice Nduma Nderi said the failed talks were a “missed opportunity” to find a balance between the parties involved as opposed to the court issuing an order.The parties will now appear at a hearing on Oct. 31 on the moderators’ application to find Meta and Sama in contempt of court.The lawsuit is the first known court challenge of its kind against Facebook outside the United States. In 2020, Facebook agreed to pay $52 million to U.S. content moderators who filed a class action lawsuit after they were repeatedly exposed to beheadings, child and sexual abuse, animal cruelty, terrorism and other disturbing content.Facebook and Sama have defended their employment practices.。二季度香港实质本地生产总值同比增长4.3%，一季度同比增长5.9%。
三 | 上半年，香港实质本地生产总值同比增长5.1%，为近5年来最强劲的半年度表现。
四 | 出口方面，二季度香港整体货物出口增速加快，同比实质增长28.9%；服务输出同比实质增长3.4%，所有主要服务组别的输出均持续增长。 内部需求在消费和投资两方面均保持强韧。二季度香港私人消费开支连续第5个季度扩张，同比实质上升2.8%；整体投资开支同比实质增幅进一步扩大至4.4%。 展望未来，特区政府经济顾问范婉儿表示，下半年香港经济将保持稳健增长。全球对人工智能相关电子产品的需求旺盛，将继续支持香港的商品贸易表现，相关物流服务也将受惠。服务输出将受惠于访港旅客的持续增长，以及对香港金融及商业服务的稳定需求。在稳定的劳工市场状况、良好的营商环境和消费信心的支持下，内部需求将保持坚挺。
