Will someone moderate this social media? Because what is with topics which are not really so nice, people whith racistic background or stuff? Could this be a darknet 2?

Why not moderate it yourself?

You know, that strange old idea of if you don't like something, don't look at it?

Do you have to have someone else deciding what you can or can't look at on social media?

Yee man!

So many snowflakes in our society, no one can ever say or do or post something that may insult or make someone feel uncomfortable- this is such utter bullshit I have not enough words.

people need to learn to be confident about them selves, they cant "feel" so easily offended by every small or, for some big, disagreement.

That is actually an interesting question. On almost every social media, you can report unacceptable content, like racist content. How will that work when the social media is decentralized??

There you have it, report button for criminal or unauthorized content. It could be put on a vote, wether to remove content or not. Say 1000 random and active platform users will get an invite to vote on some content. When first 100 have voted, and 75% says remove content then it will be taken down. The rest dont have to vote. There's many variations of how this could work

This is of course a subject that is very complicated and our solutions to it will need to keep evolving over the years. Sphere advocates free speech, but some content simply must be prohibited. We will be removing :

Speech that would incite hatred or violence
Advocating illegal activity
Copyright trademark and patent
Illegal contents such as child pornography

We can easily create a "Report This" button and incorporate it in our next release as suggested by KryptoTark to remove such content by community voting.

That's good to know. How will data be stored in Sphere? I mean the network is decentralized as much as possible, right? But what happens if someone is uploading unwanted content like for example child pornography, will it stay in the network, even if you have "deleted" it?

+1 on this question. Also, what about people selling Guns and Drugs on the platform like they did with instagram once?
