I had a question...if Amazon Turk's TOS says to not give any personally identifying information but a psychology hit requires me to enter my mturk ID and submit it to them, which identifies me, am I not violating the TOS by doing so?

Your Worker ID isn't considered personally identifying information.

Your mturk ID doesn't personally identify you, it identifies your mturk account.

Oh I'll still do them, I'm just saying that some of these psyche hits are pretty disturbing...for example if someone keeps asking me if I want to harm or injure things....(had one like that yesterday) I would think that the survey reviewer would have a responsibility to report it to Amazon....just sayin' I guess it's not really answerable...

Amazon wouldn't do anything. But if someone seems extreme they can report it to authorities. Bottom line is don't go bat shit crazy in a surveyOh I'll still do them, I'm just saying that some of these psyche hits are pretty disturbing...for example if someone keeps asking me if I want to harm or injure things....(had one like that yesterday) I would think that the survey reviewer would have a responsibility to report it to Amazon....just sayin' I guess it's not really answerable...

holy crap. i almost sort of believe it because in general it seems to boring to be just made up. But still terrifying at the same time.

no but it won't accomplish anything but maybe make you feel better. best thing is to share what happened so others can avoid said requester
