This definitely seems like a good place for either regulation or unionization.

Unionization would likely be difficult though due to the low barrier of entry for the job - artificial barriers would have to be created by the union and those break down pretty easily due to human factors (see Walmart).

I'm all for regulation in this case. Require that folks who review content for illegal posts be limited in the amount of content they review in a weekday, must have certain benefits like mental health counseling, and get some vacation / sabbatical from the work.

Risks might be reduced innovation in the field, but the big boys like Facebook and Google have already found excellent ways to snuff out their competition within the existing market.

Unionization doesn't work very well when you can trivially outsource the job/task. It'd be necessary to entirely remake the US economy, because you'd have to enable union powers that could directly control all actions by the parent corporation, including setting up overseas / outsourcing.
