Exploring Content Moderation in the Decentralised Web: The Pleroma Case Decentralising the Web is a desirable but challenging goal. One particular challenge is achieving decentralised content moderation in the face of various adversaries (e.g. trolls). To overcome this challenge, many Decentralised Web (DW) implementations rely on federation policies. Administrators use these policies to create rules that ban or modify content that matches specific rules. This, however, can have unintended consequences for many users. In this paper, we present the first study of federation policies on the DW, their in-the-wild usage, and their impact on users. We identify how these policies may negatively impact “innocent” users and outline possible solutions to avoid this problem in the future. https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.13500 Via https://UncensoredNews.US/mastodon #mastodon #information
