Content moderators can’t switch jobs so easily.

Sigh. Just completely missing the point.

If an employee couldn't afford to leave before — for whatever reason! — then they can't magically afford to leave today either.

Sure they could. They could have lined up a job or impulsively lashed out, or think enforcing the policy gives them cover. It’s the sort of thing I might do.

This is just a probability you may have a different weight on.

The benefit of doubt is for yourself, to have an accurate understanding of what you know and what you assume.

The content moderators were fired some time ago.
