marked up / censored so that I’m not just perpetuating the same problem I’m bringing up. but is it not an obvious violation of privacy to post a photo standing directly outside of someone’s window, naming the building & speculating on their behavior?

Are any people visible or identifiable? The photo looks to be taken from a public street so it might be fine? But you can ping our support and that’ll go straight to the mod team and they can take a look

to be clear, the OP was singling out the person with red lighting coming from their window as if that must mean they’re getting up to some kind of sexual debauchery. this encourages harassment of someone in real life at the place where they live and informs others of exactly where that is. I reported this twice and nothing has happened. the longer this is up the more of a threat it poses

??? someone is being singled out in a manner that encourages harassment against them, and by naming the building in question And posting this photo, anyone who sees it could very easily harass the person in real life if someone posted a photo from directly outside your apartment building, specifically pointed out Your window and said “what’s this pervert at [address] up to”, would you really not take issue?

and this is directly on-campus housing, not housing on a public street, though I would be flabbergasted if you thought the building being on a public street meant public targeted harassment aimed at someone’s physical home was acceptable me posting this here *is* me “pinging support”, because reporting twice made no difference, and in the past when speaking up here I’ve been taken seriously

still waiting on hearing back about why the post in question wasn’t removed after mods looked at the uncensored original

I’m going to have to at this point. but first I think it might be best to keep building a collection of obvious instances of harassment and bigotry which I went out of my way to bring up and yet was ignored over, because this is clearly a broader issue with YY
