If you haven’t been paying attention to the news in any modern nation, then I guess I should inform you that we’re all moving towards a police state planet. I frankly do not give a damn about the child porn problem, it’s everywhere and authorities should deal with it on their own. When you start giving power to another company or an authoritative force, then your application no longer becomes transparent. At the same time try not to be an arrogant ***wipe about it by talking down to us as if we have no technical understanding whatsoever.Ī lot of us use this program for transparency.

Just don’t expect paying customers to not complain about features they don’t like. It’s your closed-source program and it’s your every right to do what you wish with it. It is your responsibility since you implemented the feature in the first place. At the end of the day though they’re still just that - excuses. You can keep using the excuse that you don’t have the responsibility and you can keep using the excuse that you ‘know’ we’re not reading your explanations in full. We’ll keep on explaining why we did it and how it has been implemented so that everyone understand we’re only threatening criminals sharing child porn. We knew it would create confusion which would harm our business. We knew many users would not read our explanations in full. Second because GigaTribe had no obligation to implement a ‘report feature’. First because do NOT have any responsibility as we can’t check what is being exchanged, it’s forbidden by law. Saying we “don’t want to have the responsibility for dealing with features we implemented” is nonsense. When the authority receives many alerts about the same users, they are likely to start an investigation and catch the criminal. With the new report feature, we’re making it easier for anyone to warn the authority. GigaTribe has no right to investigate on someone, every user is protected by the secrecy of correspondence.

It gave no result since we had zero element to give to the authority. We’ve been aware of this issue for long and first we reported users ourself. However they do want someone to deal with members sharing child porn. Users do not dare to contact the authority directly to avoid answering questions on their contact list or on the files they’re sharing. Then click “Report “Report user” feature is the consequence of multiple users´ requests to report Child abuse contents. Right click on a file or folder shared by the malicious user. Nevertheless, GigaTribe cannot provide any information about shared contents since we have zero information about files transfered. GigaTribe will respect the Law and assist the authorities in their investigation. GigaTribe does not send any information to any authority when receiving users´ reports.īased on users´ reports elements, French authorities will decide to investigate or not.Īs part of this investigation, they can ask GigaTribe for further information. GigaTribe redirects users to the French authorities in charge of child protection.

– What does GigaTribe do when receiving a Report? The “Report user” feature is the consequence of multiple users´ requests to report Child abuse contents. Moreover, GigaTribe has zero information about files transferred. Forbidden contents in one country can be authorized in another.Īs a service provider, GigaTribe respects the Internet neutrality and does not take side for a specific jurisdiction. GigaTribe is aware that applicable laws in one country are not necessarily applicable in another. – Why does GigaTribe offer a “Report user” feature? The purpose of this blog post is to clarify this initiative. With GigaTribe 3.01.005, we introduced a new feature which gives the ability to report an user.
