Abstract

Abstract In this chapter, Amrute argues that techno-ethics can and should be revitalised through attendance to techno-affects. As scandals over predictive policing, data mining and algorithmic racism unfold, digital labourers need both to be accounted for in analyses of algorithmic technologies and to be counted among the designers of these platforms. Amrute’s chapter attempts to do both of these by highlighting particular cases in which digital labour frames embodied subjects, and to propose ways digital workers might train themselves to recognise ethical problems as they are emerging, and ultimately uses the idea of attunements as a way to grasp what these forms of care might look like for the digital worker.
