Covering: calendar year 2026 (in progress). Counts update live as moderator actions happen.

Why this page exists

The EU Digital Services Act asks every platform that hosts user content to publish, at least once a year, the number of moderation actions it took and the kinds of legal requests it received. Most platforms write reports too long for anyone to read. Ours is short because the numbers are small, and small is the whole point.

Moderation actions

Year to date:

  • Posts removed by moderators: 0
  • Posts unpublished by moderator (warning): 1
  • Accounts removed by moderators: 1
  • Letters removed after a reader report: 0
  • Letter reports dismissed: 0
  • Accounts auto-flagged for review by the daily bot scan: tracked internally; numbers shared on request.

Moderation actions are decided by a human (currently me). The bot scan surfaces candidates but doesn't act on its own.

Legal requests

  • Government requests for user data: 0
  • Court orders to remove content: 0
  • Copyright takedown notices (DMCA-equivalent): 0
  • National security letters or equivalents: 0

If this section ever stops being zeros, you'll know when this page is updated. If we receive a lawful order we'll comply, tell the affected user (unless legally forbidden), and surface it here at the next update.

Reporting

How to report something:

  • A letter you received: there's a "Report" button on every letter you receive. Admin reviews each report.
  • A post you think breaks the terms: email help@tuhat.net with the URL and the reason. Reply within 5 business days.
  • Legal notices, takedown requests: legal@tuhat.net. Include enough information to identify the content and the basis for the request.
  • Security vulnerabilities: contact details are at /.well-known/security.txt (RFC 9116).

Operational status

Uptime and incident history for tuhat and the other 8by3 services are at status.8by3.com. If the site is misbehaving, check there before assuming it's just you.

Single point of contact

Per Article 11 of the EU Digital Services Act, our single point of contact for Member State authorities, the European Commission, and the European Board for Digital Services is legal@tuhat.net. Communication may be in English.

What's not on this page

We don't run advertising, so there are no advertiser numbers. We don't run a content recommendation algorithm, so there's nothing to disclose about algorithmic amplification. We don't use AI for moderation, so there's no automated decision-making to report on.

Update cadence

This page is updated at least annually, in January, for the previous calendar year. We may update it sooner if a notable event occurs that warrants disclosure.
