Trolling is a democratic issue. I gathered a toolbox to help exposing them.
Existing anti-trolling tools: detect a troll and make
- a warning policy: https://respectfulranting.be/handvaten (in Belgium); https://anti-trollkit.com/send-a-warning-link/ (in Canada)
- an API: https://www.perspectiveapi.com/
- an company to hide them: https://www.bodyguard.ai/
- a psychology project to understand them: https://thetrollproject.com/
I tried to develop new tools, but it seems that :
- all social medias and browsers have shut down their APIs
- all social medias and browsers use dynamic html that makes web scraping impossible, even through the inspector
- US newly elected trolls troll themselves
I finally found a website that proposed a good way to gather testimonies : https://www.coabuse.fr
Let’s replicate it for anti-trolls testimonies 💪 -> follow for more on this new project
