Sonboa Community Guidelines

Sonboa is built for human-made videos, respectful discovery, and direct conversation around creator posts.

Effective date: May 19, 2026

1. Human-Made Videos Only

Sonboa is for videos made by people. Do not post videos that are wholly or materially generated by artificial intelligence, synthetic media systems, deepfake systems, or similar tools. Do not use A.I. or synthetic editing to mislead viewers about what happened, who appeared, or how a video was created.

Basic editing, color correction, captions, cropping, compression, and other normal production work are allowed when the underlying video is human-made and not deceptive.

2. A.I. Reports and Investigations

Viewers may report a video as potentially A.I.-generated. If enough eligible viewers report a video, or if Sonboa detects other signals, the video may enter an A.I. investigation.

During an A.I. investigation, the creator may be asked to submit evidence that the video is human-made, such as an original camera file, raw export, behind-the-scenes context, or other proof. Sonboa moderators may review the video, reports, evidence, and account history.

Confirmed A.I. violations escalate quickly:

3. Respect Other People

Do not post, message, or comment in ways that:

4. Keep Content Safe

Do not post:

5. Respect Intellectual Property

Only post content you created or have permission to use. Do not upload videos, music, logos, images, or other materials that infringe another person's rights.

6. Use Messaging Responsibly

Direct messages should be used for genuine conversation. Do not use messages for spam, harassment, threats, impersonation, scams, or unwanted sexual content.

7. Reporting and Blocks

Use reporting tools when you believe a post, profile, comment, or message violates Sonboa policies. Use blocking tools to limit unwanted interactions. Do not abuse reports to target creators or suppress content you simply dislike.

8. Enforcement

Sonboa may remove content, reduce distribution, reject publication, require review, ask for evidence, limit features, suspend accounts, or permanently ban accounts. Enforcement depends on the content, context, severity, account history, safety risk, and applicable law.

9. Appeals and Corrections

Where available, creators may dispute rejected posts or submit evidence during an A.I. investigation. Sonboa may restore content or remove restrictions if review shows that enforcement was incorrect.
