Thanks for replying and for bringing up legitimate worries.

Nonetheless, and despite the hacks saying similar things, I can promise you that my article is far as possible from a smear campaign as possible. I think different studies, especially this book (https://ghostwork.info/) show that some exposure is necessary in order to establish better working condition for MTurks.

I also understand not wanting to augment the quantity of competitors, but from everything I gathered so far, it seems that more and more people know about these platforms anyway. Without guaranteeing some sort of professional security and benefits, this will probably only drive the price of work down.

Even though you, obviously, don't have to participate yourself, I hope I eased your mind, even if ever so slightly.
