Open questions.
Responsible inquiry.

By using LAWDIT you agree to these terms and to the community principles below. LAWDIT is a place to investigate and discuss — not a mechanism for declaring people guilty. Last updated September 2026.

Community principles

1. Distinguish allegations from established facts. Label uncertainty and identify what a source actually supports.
2. Make claims challengeable. Preserve counterarguments, corrections, and competing legal interpretations.
3. Respect context. A fragment, similarity, or network connection is not proof of wrongdoing.
4. Protect people. Do not publish confidential material, privileged communications, doxxing, or sensitive personal information.
5. Invite responsible responses. Accurately represent organizations and individuals and make room for clarification.
6. Reward useful thought. Credibility should come from research, evidence, helpful analysis, and collaboration — not outrage.
7. Know the boundary. Community discussion, votes, and reputation do not constitute a legal judgment or professional legal advice.

Acceptable use

• Publish only material you have the right to share. Do not upload confidential, privileged, or illegally obtained material.
• Do not publish personal data about private individuals (addresses, phone numbers, ID numbers, or similar).
• Do not harass, threaten, or defame. Report allegations as allegations; never present an unproven claim as fact.
• Do not manipulate votes, reputation, or the investigation graph.
• Do not use LAWDIT to coordinate wrongdoing or to evade the law.

Not legal advice

Content on LAWDIT — issues, evidence, analysis, discussions, votes, and reputation scores — is community research and discussion. It is not legal advice, does not create a lawyer–client relationship, and must not be relied on as a legal judgment. Consult a qualified lawyer for advice about your situation.

Moderation & enforcement

Moderators may remove content, restrict accounts, or verify identities to keep the platform responsible. Removals are recorded and can be appealed. Serious or repeated violations lead to suspension. We aim to explain every enforcement action.

Your content

You keep ownership of what you publish. By publishing on LAWDIT you grant us a non-exclusive license to host and display it so the network can function, including in search results and the investigation graph.
