Crowdsourcing platforms are becoming a common tool for researchers around the world. Advocates of these platforms boast that the virtual data collection has many strengths when compared to old-school methods of surveying. Such proponents focus on aspects of convenience and diversity. Unfortunately, serious concerns identified by critical computing scholars remain unaddressed. To better understand these concerns, the research team has completed a comprehensive literature review on the ethics of crowdsourcing, an analysis of published research papers that utilized crowdsourced data, and interviews with crowd workers.
