Local Moderation, Not Global Bans

Bitsocial is not moderation-free. It is moderation without a protocol-level super-admin.

Community owners still set rules for their own spaces. Apps still decide what they index, rank, or highlight. What Bitsocial does not include is a global authority that can confiscate a community or erase an identity from the network itself.

How moderation works

• A community owner can moderate that community
• An app can choose what it indexes or shows
• A user can move to another community or another app

If one app filters you, another app can still choose to show you. If one community rejects you, another community can accept you, or you can create your own.

What Bitsocial avoids

Bitsocial avoids the familiar platform choke point where one company controls:

• the social graph
• the moderation database
• the discovery surface
• the account namespace

That central point is what turns a product policy decision into a network-wide ban.

The practical tradeoff

Local moderation does not mean every app will look identical. It means the consequences of moderation remain scoped:

• community rules apply inside that community
• app rules apply inside that app
• neither automatically becomes protocol law

That is what “no global bans” is trying to preserve.
