Moderation And Reporting

Current Intake Sources

• in-app report sheet;
• support route and support email;
• copyright email/contact once confirmed;
• admin/operator review;
• automated detection later.

Report Categories

Public policy categories:

• copyright;
• harassment;
• hate;
• violence/threats;
• sexual/minor safety;
• illegal goods;
• spam/scam;
• impersonation;
• privacy/doxxing;
• fraud;
• other.

Current backed in-app categories:

• abuse;
• harassment;
• impersonation;
• copyright;
• safety;
• other.

Implementation gap: the current report UI maps fraud, scams, unsafe products, illegal goods, spam, and malware into safety, and sponsorship disclosure into other. Dedicated categories require a schema/UI pass.

Triage Priority

1. urgent child safety, credible threats, immediate danger, illegal live behavior, or severe exploitation;
2. live-room danger, doxxing, account compromise, malware, or active scam;
3. copyright notices and clear stolen commercial media;
4. fraud, payment, sponsor, payout, fake engagement, or chargeback issues;
5. general harassment, spam, impersonation, privacy, and content/user conduct;
6. low-context or incomplete reports.

Review Actions

Moderators/operators may take one or more actions where backed:

• no action;
• ask for more information;
• label, limit, or reduce distribution;
• remove, hide, disable, or unpublish content;
• disable a live room;
• restrict upload, live, chat, comment, sponsor, or monetization access;
• suspend account;
• terminate account;
• hold payouts or monetization where backed and legally allowed;
• preserve evidence;
• escalate to legal, copyright, payment provider, app store, law enforcement, or safety authority where required.

Audit Requirements

Record:

• reviewer/moderator;
• action;
• reason;
• timestamp;
• target type and id;
• reporter id where available;
• affected user/account/content;
• policy category;
• evidence/context;
• appeal/review status.

Avoid exposing reporter identity unnecessarily.

Appeals And Review

Users may appeal certain actions through support where supported. Repeat abuse, bad-faith reports, harassment through appeals, or severe violations may limit appeal options.

Admin Tooling Status

Current admin tooling:

• recent safety reports can be read by platform roles;
• creator-video moderation status can be set to hidden, removed, or clean by owner/operator roles;
• first-class open/resolved report workflow is not connected;
• dedicated copyright claim workflow is not connected;
• fraud runtime enforcement hooks are not connected;
• payout holds are foundation-only unless a future release proves enforcement.

Launch Gaps

• dedicated DMCA form and claim log;
• report status lifecycle: open, investigating, actioned, dismissed, appealed, closed;
• reviewer assignment queue;
• automated evidence bundle;
• user-facing appeal center;
• dedicated fraud/sponsor/payout enforcement workflow;
• final severe-safety escalation owner and SLA.
