Meta, the parent company of Facebook, lost its appeal in a Kenyan labor court regarding a case involving the mass termination of content moderators. The court upheld its earlier ruling that Kenyan courts have jurisdiction over the matter, allowing the lawsuit to proceed.
The case was brought by 185 content moderators from various African countries who were employed by Sama, a contractor for Meta, in Nairobi. The moderators are seeking $1.6 billion in compensation for their alleged mistreatment and inadequate support.
