Had a quick look at your doc, and the juries idea does not sound good.

  • Moderation is not something loads of people want to do. Take a look at the list of unmoderated communities: https://programming.dev/u/Vacant - Forcing random users to be involved would likely annoy your users.

  • For certain types of reports, CSAM, gore, etc, you absolutely do not want to share that to random users. If your users are underage, it could be illegal to do that anyway, but sensitive users may not want to be exposed to triggering content.

Maybe you make being in the jury opt-in, but if most don't opt in your back to regular old moderation by the few who have the stomach for it.

    Malicious actors simply don't care about that though. They are either small fly by night operations that will just phoenix and restart under a new name, or they are huge like google, who have the resources to turn the fines and punishments into slaps on the wrist.

    Privacy policies only hold honest operations to account, everyone else is free to do what they like.

    Privacy policies are entirely voluntary. No one validates them, they are meaningless.

    Edit: For anyone who thinks this is wrong, feel free to explain your reasoning. I have written two privacy policies for 2 separate apps, neither of them realistically restrict what I can do with the data that I manage. All google and discord care about is that the policy exists, they don't verify that I am following them. Anyone with malicious intent isnt going to be affected by a privacy policy.

    Yeah, its definitely an interesting area. Seems to be mostly unused as well, apart from a tiny airport town. The runway is almost as long as the town itself.

    There is also another oddity a bit further south:

    UAE, wrapped in Oman, wrapped in UAE.

    None of the agentic AIs are free to use, so you'd have to pay for a subscription. You can run a self-hosted model, but they arent free either, and are a lot more limited.

    Small and basic apps, you can easily replace. More complex ones, not yet.
