The Problem

Managing content moderation at scale.


Publishers invite users to comment on their websites to encourage social participation and engagement, to strengthen a story’s value and to add to the overall reader’s experience.
By opening up comments, news and media outlets are also able to garner feedback from their readership over a period of time, understanding differing viewpoints and obtaining much needed commentary.
The dark side of this is that these forums and networks are notorious for bullying, harassment, hate speech, clickbait and other spam and scams.
