Análise das ferramentas de gerenciamento de comunidade do bluesky e X no combate a crimes virtuais contra as mulheres

Abstract

In a context where relationship networks extend into the online environment of social media platforms, interactions previously limited to offline settings now also migrate to virtual spaces. These interactions can manifest as positive behaviors, strengthening social bonds, or as negative behaviors that can harm others. Given the ongoing fight for gender equality across both environments and the forms of violence experienced by women, this study seeks to investigate the effectiveness of community management tools on the social networks Bluesky and X. Bluesky is a federated microblogging platform, while X operates with a traditional, centralized management structure. Each platform’s management style implements distinct policies to combat online crimes against women. This research undertakes a comparative analysis of these two networks and their tools, evaluating their potential to prevent or penalize crimes such as doxxing, revenge porn, harassment, and stalking. Based on collected data, the study analyzes the types of tools available on each social network to determine whether they effectively address and penalize these crimes, thus identifying which of the two networks provides more resources to foster a safe environment for women.
