Yeah! If you ever get DMs like that, it's best not to comply with what they want

They'll try to get you to change your Bluesky account's email (that's how they steal your account)

Then will ask to screenshare and log into your bank account (that's how they steal your money)

Hopefully some people out there won't fall for it

That, plus the fact that AI just allows anyone to make gooner slop out of spite. When they hate you so much that they fantasize about you (not to mention the misogyny as you've mentioned in your video). It leads me to wonder if things are gonna get even worse or if regulations are gonna be set.

June da Bat @junedabat.bsky.social · Sep 18

It's absolutely disgusting what they've down with your image, I'm sorry you have to go through that

And the fact that the website won't take it down even though it's non-consensual porn with a goal of destroying your image, it's just all so alarming.

Ugh.. Transphobes

Speaking on this; there's a tumblr post that PERFECTLY explains why TERFs have 'so much reach', and folk need to see it.

Stop engaging with TERFS, block them, and get them offline. Likewise, report *their* harmful comments.

Organise and be smart.

Following the previous tumblr post by khazrablood, fourohfourlifenotfound, a different user, has reblogged the post and added;

If we are ever going to stop this, then you guys need to start learning why this happens.

And it's not always because some executive made a decision to favor a TERF. It's because the technology is broken in a way TERFs have learned to use to their advantage.

So content moderation is a HUGE task. It is incredibly inefficient to manually monitor all user reports-- when you "flag" something as spam or inappropriate or 'inciting harm' (what Blueskye is saying the banned users had in their posts). So what actually happens is that the bulk of it is reviewed by machine. The precise "how" is a bit of a black box (if you say exactly, it makes it more vulnerable to being bypasses), but we generally know it's a bit of machine learning ("ai", but not he chatgpt kind) and a bit of automation. Generically this gets referred to as an "algorithm" (which is a meaningless word I don't have time to unpack here).

a continuation of khazrablood's tumblr post, reblogged and added to by fourohfourlifenotfound;

The TERFs have a formula. A battle plan, if you will. I've been watching them use it for almost a decade. And they play social media sites like a fiddle every single time.

The way it works is that they coordinate attacks on targets they dislike. (Usually trans people, but ace discourse is a notable example of targets not necessarily fitting that demographic.) They send links to each other of posts to report. They'll flag it for whatever the nearest thing they can is. The blueskye users were wishing ill to JK Rowling, so "inciting harm" was the excuse selected. "Inappropriate or sexually explicit content" is a common selection for other trans content.

Then what happens is the content moderation "algorithm" sees a huge influx of reports for a certain post or user. And instead of making a human manually review all of that, it automatically initiates a ban or takedown. And if the "algorithm" has word censorship built in, it will begin to auto-flag for things containing words in posts frequently flagged, so it begins to auto-flag the word trans itself.

The end of tumblr user fourohfourlifenotfound addition to khazrablood's original tumblr post;

This has been happening for almost a decade. There was a trans youtuber who proved TERF hater group chats flagged his videos so much that it started auto-demonitizing identical videos with the word trans in the title, but leaving ones without the word alone. I strongly suspect this is why we see huge amounts of trans women banned for no reason on tumblr. And this is clearly what is happening now.

How do we fix it? There's no easy solution. All the things about the "algorithm" that make moderation easier for the social media platforms are the exact reasons it's so difficult to defeat. It's hard to teach a machine what's a genuine flag and a malicious one. Again, it's been almost a decade since the issue was raised with youtube, and there has yet to be a solution for rooting out malicious coordinated flagging.

But here's one thing that can help: get TERFs off of social media. Stop letting them bait you into petty fights. Learn how to identify them. Block and report them.
