Stuflog Playbook

v1.0

Stuflog adopts a neutral stance towards all opinions. Our goal is to provide our users with both a free and safe environment. To achieve this balance, we continuously develop new approaches and systems. In this direction, although Stuflog is a digital platform, it structures its operation like a law of nature: It has clearly defined, minimal, and genuinely enforced clear rules.

Thanks to our highly selective advertising policy and structure independent of political authorities, our focus is solely on our users, authentic content, and innovative technologies. While protecting freedom of thought, we work intensively to distinguish situations that could harm our community and ensure this balance fairly.

Content control on Stuflog is handled under two main headings: First, the rules established for users; second, the principles on which Stuflog algorithms are based.

Platform Rules

In 5 steps

1. Child Abuse

Stuflog implements a zero-tolerance policy against any form of abuse of minors. No content, behavior, or guidance that could lead to physical, psychological, or sexual abuse of children is permitted. Users who engage in such actions are immediately removed from the platform and cooperation is established with relevant authorities when necessary.

2. Harming and provocation

Individuals, ideas, and communities can be criticized under any circumstances. Stuflog is based on freedom of expression and maintains its neutral stance. However, criticism becomes unacceptable when it turns into calls to incite hatred, promote violence, harm people or communities, or eliminate them.

We are aware of the fine line between criticism, opposing views, and expressing opinions; and insults, targeting, and causing harm. Therefore, Stuflog acts meticulously in content moderation and expects its users to act with common sense, empathy, and a sense of responsibility.

3. Fraud and Misuse

Actions aimed at deceiving any person, disclosing their personal information, blackmailing, or humiliating them are not permitted. When sharing images, audio, or similar materials, elements that would violate the privacy of third parties must be censored.

4. Intellectual Property & Generative AI

Content within the scope of intellectual property can be removed at the request of the copyright holder. Non-human-generated (AI-generated) content can only be included on the platform if certain conditions are met. In this context, Stuflog applies a separate Artificial Intelligence Policy.

5. Illegal Products and Services

The sale, exchange, promotion, or gifting of any illegal goods and services is strictly prohibited. This includes but is not limited to:

  • Stolen goods
  • All types of weapons, explosives, and ammunition
  • Organ trafficking
  • Sale of personal data
  • Abuse or sexual depiction of minors
  • Abuse or harm to animals
  • Information about the sale or production of alcohol, drugs, and similar substances
  • Sale of prescription drugs
  • Tobacco products
  • Physical or virtual sex services
  • Gambling, raffles, and illegal betting activities
  • Stock market manipulation and speculative guidance
  • Sale of endangered or predatory animals

Our Fundamentals

In 5 steps

1. No Astroturfing

Stuflog uses algorithms that detect and neutralize organized and coordinated shares aimed at creating artificial public opinion. In line with our principle of creating an environment where different views can coexist, we take measures that promote polyphony.

2. No Fraudulent Ads

We detect misleading, manipulative, or actions that mislead users and take active measures to create a healthy communication environment. In this direction, strict evaluation and filtering processes are applied to advertisements published on Stuflog within the scope of our advertising policy.

3. Right of Reply

Everyone should have the right to speak. Stuflog's algorithm works to automatically grant the right of reply to individuals or institutions mentioned in shares in relevant content.

To express yourself in top positions, it is sufficient to have an approved Stuflog account.

4. Poor Quality Content

Stuflog does not have a follower or like system. The algorithm highlights users not based on popularity, but on the quality of the content produced. Content is evaluated with a rating score.

In this direction:

  • Trolling
  • Clickbait
  • Misleading headlines
  • Inappropriately tagged content

may receive lower ratings and remain in the background in visibility.

5. Human Health First

Stuflog encourages not sharing content that could cause physical or mental harm to people. It separates such content in advertising policies and confronts users with informative warnings.

This includes:

  • Content that is physically or mentally harmful to humans
  • Posts promoting smoking, alcohol, and substance use
  • Images containing excessive sexuality

Stuflog, as a free and neutral platform, aims to develop its policies flexibly, context-sensitive, and human-centered rather than strict bans.
