Filtering and discovery algorithm, offline, on device, private, transparent and easily auditable.
All Moderators Are Bad, That's the null hypothesis.
They do not get the benefit of the doubt, it was always laughable to think they wouldn't immediately abuse their position to shape and manipulate the public with their power while constantly acting like the victims.

The jannies make me sick !
