The lawsuits claim that despite the workers being contracted by Sama, Meta essentially supervised and set the terms for the work, raising legal accountability questions.
If successful, these lawsuits could set a precedent in Kenyan law, making Big Tech companies legally accountable for any wrongdoing in subcontracted facilities.
Supporters argue that the outcome of these cases could strengthen workers' rights and protect against exploitation in Kenya’s growing data labeling sector.
Opponents caution that holding Big Tech liable may deter foreign investment in Kenya, jeopardizing jobs and the country’s economic growth prospects.
