Description

Turkopticon was recently relaunched based on results of a survey among platform workers conducted in 2016. The project was formerly a rating system for Amazon Mechanical Turk requesters (clients), but is now focusing on rating Human Intelligence Tasks (HITs). The project aims to collect objective ratings from workers and guarantees the anonymity of its participants.
