"In Tamil, there are so many slurs that change even from one city to another. You don’t see that so much in English. It is broader." This reflection by an Uli annotator conveys the challenge of combating #OGBV. #ParticipatoryML

How we design #ML tools matters as much as what we design. Uli – a tool to track, archive and redact slurs and problematic content – was created in a participatory manner. Read more: uli.tattle.co.in/blog/chisel…

Some exciting updates from this sprint: github.com/tattle-made/docs/… We added a new feature to Uli so that you can add a slur to the custom slur list by right clicking on a selected text. This feature should be available to anyone who has Uli installed.

To clarify the new owner’s doubts: posting on the platform is work. Harassment on the platform is the occupational hazard people of marginalized genders face in building/maintaining their profiles on this platform.

Twitter is used by communities around the world to organise and mobilise. And for now at least, people are staying. This platform is, after all, built on their labor too. xitter.cf/GenderITorg/status/159… #16Days #16DaysOfActivism

Nov 25th marked the beginning of the #16days campaign to end violence against women. We'll use it to talk about the ghost of online gender-based violence that haunts social media platforms. How does one respond to it, and the resilience of those who inhabit these spaces.

We can try to make these two goals complementary and not competing ones: build tools, but also build partnerships and solidarity to advocate for expansion of what platforms consider abusive. More importantly, advocate for radical re-imagining of the digital spheres we meet in.

In the next few days we'll continue to analyze online #GBV using Twitter 2.0 as a fulcrum that has to balance issues of ownership, labor, freedom and connection on social media.
