This repository has been archived by the owner on Apr 12, 2023. It is now read-only.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
The DPT don't have community guidelines, instead comments are bound by the law.
Examples of illegal comments are publishing a private data like address, full name etc. (doxxing) as well as incitements to crimes ("Shop x in street y holds lots of cash, rob it!").
We need to create a (mock up) possibility to report such illegal postings. We also need to collect user feedback on the concept.
Describe the solution you'd like
The context frame of an opinion has a second button called "press charges" (with a police office icon^^). If the user clicks it, he is presented with a form:
If this opinion is illegal under the German law, you can sue its author.
Please state which law the opinion breaks: [radio buttons] - personal data - incitement to crime - direct threat
Your lawsuit will be handled by HateAid e.V. You will need to deposit 20€ to prove you are suerious about this. You get it back, if the court of Berlin adjudges your charge. Otherwise it will be donated to Hateaid e.V.
What will happen next:
The author of this opinion will be asked if she or he is ready to reveal their identity to HateAid and go to court.
If she or he is not (or does not respond), the opinion will get deleted.
If they are, the opinion will be placed behind a "curtain" with the mark "sued", but will remain public until the court has decided.
In case HateAid advises us, that approval by court is certain, we will proactively conceal the opinion and mark it as "The author of this opinion violated [paragraph]. We are awaiting the verdict.". In the unlikely event of charges being acquitted, the opinion will be restored and marked as "legal".
[Cancel] [Yes, I want to continue]
If the "proceeed" button is clicked, the user is presented with a mockup window saying "your charges have been forwarded to HateAid".
Additional context
Please note that we want to allow hate speech like "kill all x" - in order to have it challenged. If the author does not allows challenge.. the post stays in the clutter (with the new graph layout).
While such a post could legally certainly be deleted, the German constitutional law holds the possibility to weight basic rights against each other ("practical concordance"). In this case we weigh the right for free speech against the right for personal dignity, because we feel allowing hate speech in order to challenge it is a greater gain to the democratic foundation than deleting it. A disclaimer would ask all users to agree to this position before entering.
