Public-facing privacy
Posts can be shown under a display name rather than a legal identity, reducing retaliation risk for ordinary users.
Source-backed civic review
Track public sentiment around public officials using evidence-backed posts, agreement voting, and visible moderation rather than social-media noise.
Privacy model
Contributors should be able to speak without exposing personal identity publicly, while the platform still maintains private verification and abuse controls.
Posts can be shown under a display name rather than a legal identity, reducing retaliation risk for ordinary users.
Platform verification can happen privately through email, phone, or government ID checks without exposing that information on the public profile.
Private verification gives the platform a stronger basis for rate limits, moderation review, repeat-abuse handling, and appeals when needed.
Featured officials
Recently added profiles using live directory data.
Public discussion
Using the current highest-impact recent posts instead of an unsupported standalone trend engine.
Accountability
This section keeps the Stitch layout direction, but the copy is grounded in the behaviors the current app actually supports.
Every feedback post requires an external source URL so readers can inspect the claim directly.
Votes record agreement or disagreement instead of social popularity, keeping the signal more explicit.
Moderation status stays separate from scoring, so review actions remain visible rather than hidden in the model.
