As digital technology is widely applied in various fields of economy and society,digital labor emerges due to the continuous integration of traditional labor with digital technology.The analysis of the es-sence and new phenomena of digital labor,digital capital,and their relationship is of great significance in re-vealing the nature of digital capitalism.In the context of digital capitalism,digital capital amplifies the non-material characteristics of the labor objects and means in digital labor,but digital labor does not change the na-ture of labor and still belongs to the category of Marxist political economics.The combination of digital capital and digital technology,which corresponds to digital labor,does not change the exploitativeness of digital capi-tal.Under the control of digital capital,digital labor is still exploited,and there are new changes in the width,length,and depth of the labor-capital relationship of capitalism.It is necessary to deeply recognize that digital capitalism aggravates the imbalance of the existing labor-capital relationship,brings new class antagonism,and makes exploitation more invisible so that the illusion of"liberalization"and"flexibility"of the labor-capital relationship promoted by digital capitalism can be uncovered;the mask of digital capitalism can be taken off,and the truth of Marxist classical theory can be verified.
