1. The forum & main site will stay up indefinitely after MTurk shuts down in case anyone needs anything. I assume a handful of things will break after MTurk vaporizes & I'll fix it as fast as I can to keep the two main parts of the site online.

    Looking around it sounds like the official Amazon policy is to basically know nothing from what I see.

    No wonder considering 90% of the sites you visit to do your HITS scrape your screen, monitor mouse activity, record keystrokes and use privacy-invading session replay scripts. Some collect screen shots and meta data that is absolutely 100% tied to you personally. The chances of identity theft and other bad things happening to an unsavvy worker are pretty high if you're doing a lot of HITS.

    Not to mention this is posted on the website where the main feature is: watch everything you do on MTurk and ask you to upload it so a bunch of strangers can see if it was good or not
