Community Guidelines

White Rabbit exists so people can follow each other's curiosity. These guidelines keep it a place where that feels safe. They apply to everything on the Service: profiles, rabbit holes and their Trails, notes, comments, messages, and attachments. They're part of our Terms of Use.

• Curiosity. Share what you genuinely explored. Questions are welcome, including half-formed ones.
• Credit. Rabbit holes build on each other. Keep the trail of who found what.
• Care. Disagree with ideas, not people. Assume good faith, and remember there's a person on the other side.

Don't post, send, or link to content that:

• is illegal, or promotes or facilitates illegal activity, including the sale of illegal goods;
• harasses, bullies, or intimidates anyone, or encourages others to;
• attacks people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, religion, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, serious illness, or age;
• threatens or incites violence, or glorifies violent events or the people behind them;
• shows graphic violence or gore without clear documentary, educational, or news context and a warning;
• promotes or gives instructions for suicide, self-harm, or eating disorders;
• is sexually explicit, or shares intimate images of someone without their consent;
• supports terrorist or violent extremist organizations;
• spreads malware, phishing, or other harmful code; or
• infringes someone else's copyright, trademark, or other rights (see our Copyright & DMCA Policy).

We have zero tolerance for content that sexualizes, exploits, or endangers children. We remove it, terminate the accounts involved, and report it to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and to law enforcement as required by law. Don't share such content even to condemn it; report it to us instead.

• Don't share someone's private information without their permission: home address, phone number, identity documents, financial or medical information, or precise location.
• Don't share other people's browsing, private rabbit holes, or private messages, including screenshots of them.
• Don't use the Service to track, profile, or surveil anyone.

• Don't post spam, repetitive content, or unsolicited promotion, or send bulk messages.
• Don't create rabbit holes that are really ads without saying so. If you're paid or rewarded to share something, say so clearly.
• Don't manipulate likes, follows, forks, trends, or rankings, including with multiple or automated accounts.
• Don't pretend to be another person, brand, or organization, or mislead people about who you are or who you're connected with. Parody and fan accounts must say so clearly in their name and bio.
• Don't present fabricated Trails as real, or make up sources.
• Don't make false reports, or get others to, to have something hidden.

Forking and passing on rabbit holes is how curiosity spreads here, and credit comes built in. Use it: fork instead of copying, don't remove or disguise where a rabbit hole came from, and don't repost someone else's rabbit hole as your own.

Curiosity often leads to difficult places: history, medicine, crime, conflict. Exploring them is welcome. Give context, choose your sources carefully, and don't present medical, legal, or financial claims as settled fact when they aren't. Content about sensitive topics may be kept out of recommendations, and never has ads next to it.

These guidelines apply in messages too. Don't send unwanted sexual content, threats, or harassment, and respect it when someone doesn't want to talk. You can leave a group conversation, and block anyone you don't want to hear from. If you look after a group conversation, you can also remove people and messages from it (see Look after a discussion).

If you see something that breaks these guidelines, choose Report in its menu: on a rabbit hole, comment, message, conversation, or profile. Pick a reason, add a note if it helps, and send. Reports are confidential; we don't tell the person who reported them. To stop hearing from someone, block them. See Blocking, reporting, and limits.

If you can't use Report, for example because you don't have an account, email contact.whiterabbt.com@gmail.com with a link to the content or the account's username, and a short description. If someone is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services first.

When content or behavior breaks these guidelines, we may take one or more of these actions, depending on how serious it is, the context, and the account's history:

• remove the content, or limit who can see it;
• keep the content out of recommendations, trends, and search;
• send a warning;
• temporarily restrict features, such as posting or messaging;
• suspend the account; or
• permanently terminate the account, and prevent the person from creating new ones.

Some of this is automatic. White Rabbit limits how much any account can post, send, or do in a short time; refuses slurs, hate terms, and spam before they're posted; and hides content that several people have reported until we've reviewed it. See Blocking, reporting, and limits.

Severe violations, such as child sexual exploitation, credible threats of violence, or terrorism, lead to immediate termination. We may also report content to the authorities where the law requires it or someone's safety is at risk.

If you think we made a mistake, email contact.whiterabbt.com@gmail.com within 30 days of the action, from the address on your account. Tell us which content or account is affected and why you think the decision was wrong. A person who wasn't involved in the original decision will review it, and we'll tell you the outcome.
