The idea behind the paper was to build a technical tool that would alert crowdworkers to the presence of quality control checks in a work task, and I developed a theoretical lense drawing in part of Galloway and Thacker&#8217;s concept of the &#8216;exploit&#8217;. This was submitted to HCOMP 2018 where it was awarded Best Paper Award.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Checco A, Bates J &amp; Demartini G (2018) All That Glitters Is Gold \u2013 An Attack Scheme on Gold Questions in Crowdsourcing.

This line of work builds on work of researchers such as Lily Irani who developed the Turkopticon plugin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From this qualitative research came the idea of a crowdworker co-operative which we presented an initial prototype design for in book chapter to be published in 2021. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Bates J, Checco A, Gerakopoulou E (forthcoming) Worker perspectives on designs for a crowdwork co-operative.
