摘要

在美国,社交媒体组织对用户在其平台上的行为或言论不承担法律责任,可以自由地以任何他们认为合适的方式规范表达。因此,互联网的黑暗角落已经出现,以培育社区,其唯一目的是创造和分享征服传统边缘化群体成员的内容。reddit的子版块/r/TheRedPill就是这样一个社区。本文探讨了通过数字“隔离”隐藏这些令人反感的内容还是完全删除社区在道德上更合理。我们借鉴关于社交媒体内容审核的道德理论,以透明度、企业社会责任和人类尊严为基础,制定一个道德决策框架,指导内容删除的决策。以/r/TheRedPill为例,我们认为最合乎道德的做法是Reddit将该网站从其平台上完全移除。

Are You Sure You Want to View This Community? Exploring the Ethics of Reddit’s Quarantine Practice
ABSTRACT In the United States, social media organizations are not legally liable for what users do or say on their platforms and are free to regulate expression in any way they see fit. As a result, dark corners of the Internet have emerged to foster communities whose sole purpose is to create and share content that subjugates members of traditionally marginalized groups. The subreddit,/r/TheRedPill, is one such community. This article explores whether hiding this offensive content through digital “quarantine” or removing the community altogether is more ethically justifiable. We draw on theorizing about the ethics of social media content moderation to develop a framework for ethical decision-making based on transparency, corporate social responsibility, and human dignity to guide decisions about content removal. Using/r/TheRedPill as a case study, we argue that the most ethically justified course of action is for Reddit to remove the site entirely from its platform.
