## Your actions are your responsibility

Apple tolerates no objectionable content or abusive users on their platforms.

You are responsible for your own actions within this app. You are responsible for complying with all applicable rules and laws.

## You choose what you see

You are in full control of the content you see in Tilde Friends. The peers to which you choose to connect and the users you choose to follow directly determine the content presented to you. Initially you will be following no one with no connections and as a result see no user-generated content.

If you encounter objectionable content, you can filter it from your view by blocking the user who posted it. This also makes it so that users following you will not see it as a consequence of following you. You moderate for your friends and vice versa.

You can also flag a message to report to the operators of services with which you interact that the it should be considered for removal.

The `admin` app contains a variety of settings that control the types of connections Tilde Friends will make or accept, including whether the app will even accept or make connections at all. This is also where a local blocklist can be managed.
