Title:

How (Not) to Get Banned on Social Networks!

Your vote:
Yes No
Organizer:
John Adams, Twitter
Description:
Many people use social networks for advertising, marketing, and personal promotion-- some for good, and many for evil. This panel will consist of members from various abuse and security teams on many popular social networks. We'll take a look at how to use these networks to your advantage, without raising the ire of support and abuse teams, gaming the system, or just being evil. We'll give you an insider's view of what it's like to deal with user issues on a day to day basis, and how you can avoid being pulled into the many traps we've laid by being a good net citizen. We'll also discuss user privacy concerns in the age of social networking and advertising, when all is laid to bare.
Questions

  1. What steps can I take to be a good net citizen?
  2. What three things will cause my account to be suspended?
  3. What does it take to advertise and not anger the abuse team?
  4. Why is SEO a dirty three letter word?
  5. Why is advertising so painful for social networks?
  6. Repeating, RSS, and retweeting: A good idea or not?
  7. Abuse of social networks and the law: What can happen to me?
  8. How do I respect user privacy but still target my content?
  9. What happens when someone complains about you?

Just want to attend for the fact that "John Adams" is talking about being a good "net-citizen" I smell revolution and hear the marching beginning.

I'm showing up for this one as it might uncover or highlight what would constitute the swath of shifting patterns that denote USE vs ABUSE.
