PEF is a volunteer-driven initiative working to counter authoritarian disinformation across decentralized platforms.
While many focus on Ukraine, we combat all anti-democratic propaganda globally.
Here’s how it works. 👇
✅ Not limited to Ukraine—we combat all forms of authoritarian disinfo.
âś… Aligned with Public Education Forum values, not any single advocacy group.
âś… Human review first, with conservative automation for viral disinfo.
⚖️ Our Moderation Approach
🔹 Bad actors outside the community→Account-level labels for visibility.
🔹 Inside the community→Granular post-level labeling, with full account actions requiring a 2/3 majority vote.
✔️ Fast response to viral disinformation.
✔️ Avoiding disruptions for genuine users.
✔️ Full transparency in moderation history & appeals.
✔️ No verification of friendly accounts—our focus is stopping disinformation, not endorsements.
🔹 Appeals welcomed—unjustified labels are automatically removed if not supported by our records.
🔹 Severe content (CSAM, torture) handled separately, prioritizing platform safety.
🔹 Continuous improvement—our moderation evolves as the team grows.
