    With the accelerated development of digital economy,the social and economic space can be expanded. The implementation of labor process has also changed from a physical space to a digital platform (physical space + virtual space). Due to the separability of technical and social spaces in the virtual space, the labor process of the digital economy shows features of atomization. Compared with the form of labor control in the industrial economy, the digital platform forms a new labor control pattern of algorithm setting based on information aggregation, which can facilitate the wholeprocess and fullrange management and control of the labor process scattered in different physical spaces. The labor process in the digital platform improves not only the resource utilization efficiency, but also the link conversion efficiency. Furthermore, the combination of laborers and owners of the means of production in the digital platform presents new characteristics, but the essence of laborcapital relations has not changed. The actual subordination of labor to capital is being strengthened, which may be concealed by practices such as “overtime in work with flexible hours” and “flexible working”.
