臉書廣告賺2000億 義學者:用戶都是免費數位勞工

國際中心/綜合報導

社交媒體臉書(Facebook)已經成為多數人生活中不可或缺的一部分。義大利學者卡西立(Antonio Casilli)表示,網路的使用已經成為數位工作的一種;在臉書發文、按讚、分享都具有商業價值,讓業者荷包滿滿,用戶其實已淪為免費的數位勞工。

據法媒《解放報》報導,臉書的登入頁面上寫著:「註冊,永遠免費。」表示不需要付錢,用戶就可以和親朋好友保持聯繫,隨時分享生活中的每一刻,彷彿占了便宜,但羊毛出在羊身上。卡西立表示,「事實上我們是生產者、工作者。每個發文、評論、分享,甚至網上的一舉一動都是工作的行為,更別說那些費心寫成的內容。所有的動作,都被匯入科技公司的大數據中。

►►►秒飛遙遠國度--歡迎「ET看世界」粉絲團

卡西立畢業於義大利大學,在巴黎擔任大學講師,專精數位文化和網路社會學。他表示,「數位工作」指的是連上網路,並留下足跡,可以稱為是「工作」,因為這些足跡具有價值,可以在市場上販賣,而網路公司也不斷地把數據拿來修改演算式。

據了解,臉書今年的廣告利潤將達到68億美元(約新台幣2000億元);每個臉書用戶檔案大約價值11到24美元(約新台幣350到750元),而且這應該是被低估的,因為科技公司提供的數據很可能不透明或是遭到扭曲。

卡西立還說,不能因為大家樂意使用臉書,就否認這是工作,因為感覺到快樂也是促進生產力的誘因之一。他認為,網路工作是新型的認知資本主義(cognitive capitalism),全面滲透在日常生活,模糊了家庭、工作的界線,也引發隱私問題;因為用戶很難得到合理的報酬,卡西立主張,應該要向科技大公司課稅,然後提供每個人基本工資保障。

另一名社會學家胡斯(Ursula Huws)則指出,當前資本主義讓過去非商品的社會關係,也進入經濟範疇、有了利潤空間,科技也瓦解泰勒化生產模式,例如優步(Uber)帶來便利,但工 作業更不穩定;科技便利讓工作零碎化,甚至隱形化,新無產階級誕生,但生產者尚未自覺,仍以為自己是占便宜的消費者。

[Podcast] Antonio Casilli sur France Culture : Profil public / Profil privé (27 nov. 2013)

Le sociologue Antonio Casilli était l’invité de Marie Richeux pour l’émission Pas la peine de crier (France Culture).

“Public” (3/5): Profil public / Profil privé

Troisième moment de cette semaine entièrement consacrée à lidée de “public” sous toutes ses formes. Avec Antonio Casilli, nous réfléchissons aujourd’hui à la publicité du privé, et à l’usage qui en est fait sur quelques réseaux sociaux.

Aujourd’hui, appliquons-nous à marcher sur la frontière public/privé dont les enjeux se modifient, se déplacent et se redistribuent à l’intérieur des réseaux sociaux numériques, ou par l’usage de plus en plus répandu de ceux-ci. Si l’on considère que les relations numériques ne remplacent pas les autres relations, qu’elles s’ajoutent à elles pour constituer le réel, on peut cependant les analyser en cherchant à comprendre leur spécificité. L’apparition d’ordinateurs personnels, de petite taille, fait entrer la technologie dans l’espace privé du logement, de la chambre. Qu’injectons-nous dans l’ordinateur et dans ses dérivés de ce que nous pouvons appeler « vie privée », terme qui est évidemment à discuter… Dans la mesure où une information échangée sur le web peut avoir une valeur tour à tour confidentielle et collective, et que cette qualification est un curseur que l’utilisateur ne maîtrise pas toujours, qu’est-ce qui se joue exactement pour les individus et les communautés qu’ils composent ?
Antonio A. Casilli est maître de conférences en Digital Humanities à Telecom ParisTech et chercheur en sociologie au Centre Edgar-Morin (EHESS, Paris). Il est l’auteur notamment de Les liaisons numériques (Ed. du Seuil, 2010).
