Creative Disobedience

korrasera:

So, there are people that have been mapping out the ins and outs of what the content bot can detect and flag. You can report flagged items for review.

If one wanted to protest tumblr’s nsfw content ban then on December 17th you could start posting images from a collection of completely SFW images, using parameters generated by the mappers above, and then report every single one that gets flagged as inappropriate.

Maybe a site full of false positives that completely chokes their ability to respond to reports and take any action on any messages in any reasonable amount of time.

At the very least it might make them invest in setting up real moderation, even though that won’t matter because everyone will be gone by then.
