Concepts
In order to better understand FIRES, there are several guiding concepts that are worth understanding.
- Firewall-based Federation Management – Using policies to control what we accept, filter, reject, and ignore when federating.
- Advisories & Recommendations – The different types of moderation decisions supported.
- Filters – Shared vocabularies of filters to apply when applying a moderation decision.
- Labels – Organising moderation decisions using shared vocabularies of labels.
- Retractions – Sometimes moderation decisions change and we need to issue a retraction to a previously made decision.
