• Abstract summary: Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter provide platforms to share vast amounts of content with a single click. These platforms do not impose restrictions on the uploaded content, which may include abusive language and explicit images unsuitable for social media. We propose a new Bi-GRU-CNN model to classify whether the text is offensive or not.

• Abstract: Over the years, the number of users of social media has increased drastically. People frequently share their thoughts through social platforms, and this leads to an increase in hate content. In this virtual community, individuals share their views, express their feelings, and post photos, videos, blogs, and more. Social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter provide platforms to share vast amounts of content with a single click. However, these platforms do not impose restrictions on the uploaded content, which may include abusive language and explicit images unsuitable for social media. To resolve this issue, a new idea must be implemented to divide the inappropriate content. Numerous studies have been done to automate the process. In this paper, we propose a new Bi-GRU-CNN model to classify whether the text is offensive or not. The combination of the Bi-GRU and CNN models outperforms the existing model.

  Social media platforms are being increasingly misused to spread toxic content, including hate speech, malicious advertising, and pornography. Despite tremendous efforts in developing and deploying content moderation methods, malicious users can evade moderation by embedding texts into images. We propose a metamorphic testing framework for content moderation software.

  We analyze two social media that enforced opposite moderation methods, Twitter and Gab, to assess the interplay between news consumption and content regulation. Our results show that the presence of moderation pursued by Twitter produces a significant reduction of questionable content. The lack of clear regulation on Gab results in the tendency of the user to engage with both types of content, showing a slight preference for the questionable ones which may account for a dissing/endorsement behavior.

We infer the leaning of users about controversial topics and reconstruct their interaction networks by analyzing different features. We find support for the hypothesis that platforms implementing news feed algorithms like Facebook may elicit the emergence of echo-chambers.
