Trusted Flaggers and YouTube Contributors mitigate both of those problems.
|
|
Even for Trusted Flaggers, there are still roadblocks preventing quick action.
|
|
But power-flaggers say not all reports are responded to correctly.
|
|
The Trusted Flaggers program, which is invite-only, now includes more than 2685 organizations.
|
|
Trusted Flaggers were responsible for just 4.8 percent of flags but 1,131,962 video removals.
|
|
Some portion of those videos are actually identified by trusted flaggers or users, etc.
|
|
The report said that Google claimed the accuracy rate for trusted flaggers was 90 percent.
|
|
Trusted Flaggers and YouTube Contributors, the programs specific to YouTube, also get invited to events.
|
|
Because work cannot be done on or near the tracks without transit employees acting as "flaggers," essentially lookouts for oncoming trains, and because there is a shortage of lower-level workers to act as flaggers, skilled signal maintainers were pressed into this task, current and former employees said.
|
|
YouTube also announced new steps last year including automated systems and additional flaggers to fight extremism on its platform.
|
|
The resultant anger, from the conservative, pro-Confederate whites who came to be known as "flaggers," was boiling hot.
|
|
Another, predominantly white, group called the "flaggers," was equally vocal that the flag remain as a symbol of Confederate heritage.
|
|
YouTube stressed in a statement to The Hill that the trusted flaggers are not the final arbiters of what stays on YouTube.
|
|
"Videos flagged by trusted flaggers are reviewed by YouTube content moderators according to YouTube's Community Guidelines," a company spokesperson told The Hill.
|
|
YouTube requires flaggers to document specific timestamps noting where in the video the violence happens, along with written descriptions of that violence.
|
|
It's against that backdrop that YouTube, which is owned by Google, has made the SPLC one of its more than 100 content flaggers.
|
|
It wants web companies to allow third-party "trusted flaggers" with "specific expertise in identifying illegal content" to come in and monitor potentially illegal posts.
|
|
In August, the BBC spoke to some Trusted Flaggers, part of a program in which YouTube gives special weight to users who accurately flag problems.
|
|
The flaggers told the outlet that the company had a backlog that may have prevented offending videos, including those involving children, from being swiftly removed.
|
|
In 26, the platform announced YouTube Heroes, an initiative that included Trusted Flaggers as well as super-users who contribute translations and captions to videos.
|
|
Individual Trusted Flaggers also far outpaced the removals initiated by NGOs (63,938) and government organizations (73), which are also part of the Trusted Flagger program.
|
|
While normal users can always report individual videos for review by YouTube staff, the group of more than 100 "trusted flaggers" can easily flag multiple videos for faster review.
|
|
These super-users volunteer for YouTube through a company initiative that used to be called "YouTube Heroes" but is now known as two separate programs, Trusted Flaggers and YouTube Contributors.
|
|
The guidelines call on the companies to appoint points of contact so they can be rapidly alerted about illegal content and work with trusted flaggers - experts in identifying such content.
|
|
The BBC also reported criticism directed at YouTube by members of its Trusted Flaggers program, saying they don't feel adequately supported and arguing the company could be doing much more.
|
|
The commission says they are designed to make the process of flagging down and removing inappropriate content faster and to reinforce cooperation between companies, trusted flaggers, and law enforcement authorities.
|
|
The EC's intent here is also to bolster cooperation between tech firms, trusted flaggers (aka third party specialist organization that help platforms with identifying problem content) and law enforcement authorities.
|
|
Rob Brotherton, a psychologist and science journalist who wrote "Suspicious Minds: Why We Believe Conspiracy Theories," said it is not just false-flaggers who seek connections and hidden meanings in world events.
|
|
The EC further suggests the Code of Conduct has helped tackle the spread of illegal hate speech in the region by strengthening and enlarging the tech firms' network of "trusted flaggers" throughout Europe.
|
|
There isn't a magic number that will get you frozen out, but a rule of thumb adopted by the Facebook flaggers is to report five, break for five minutes, then pick it up again.
|
|
A transparency report for October 2017 to December 2017 shows the outsize effect that Trusted Flaggers have: Regular users were responsible for 94.9 percent of flags leading to 402,33 video removals during that period.
|
|
Mr. Weinstein said the M.T.A.'s subway action plan is "accelerating signal inspection, maintenance and upgrade projects throughout the system" and added that even if maintainers were acting as flaggers, critical work was being done.
|
|
"Content flagged by Trusted Flaggers is not automatically removed or subject to any differential policy treatment — the same standards apply for flags received from other users," one source, who asked to remain anonymous, told The Verge.
|
|
In the second half of 2017, German authorities and trusted flaggers significantly increased the number of requests submitted to Twitter to block specific accounts and content, and that the company complied with hundreds of these requests.
|
|
In 2002, the state's last Democratic governor, Roy Barnes, lost a re-election bid after suffering a backlash from pro-Confederate "flaggers" who were angry that he changed the state flag, which had incorporated the Confederate battle flag.
|
|
This summer, YouTube listed four steps to better achieve that goal, which included expanding its pool of flaggers, better use of automated tools, take a harder look at videos that skirt the line, and work with counter-radicalization groups.
|
|
Susan Hathaway, the leader of a group called the Virginia Flaggers, had a message that sounded strikingly similar to one that King paraders had heard from their organizers less than an hour earlier — but one with a different goal.
|
|
These steps included investing in machine-learning technology to help identify videos associated with terrorism, increasing the number of "Trusted Flaggers" to identify content that can be used to radicalize terrorists, and redirecting potential extremist recruits to watch counterterrorism videos instead.
|
|
As a result the Commission has issued a set of guidelines for how the internet firms could increase the speed and effectiveness of their removals of content, be it through establishing trusted flaggers or investing more in automatic detection technologies.
|
|
Louie Gohmert opted not to direct questions toward Pichai, and instead used the bulk of his time to disparage Wikipedia and the Southern Poverty Law Center — two of YouTube's partners in its "Trusted Flaggers" program to spot violating content on its platform.
|
|
In August 2015, Danville made flying the Confederate flag on city property illegal, prompting the HPA to file a lawsuit against the city as another group called the Virginia Flaggers raised a 30-by-50-foot flag just outside town in protest.
|
|
But where an immediate need appears, ordinary people step right up, taking charge of traffic outside one of the few open supermarkets or acting as flaggers around streets blocked by debris (which, after more than a week, is taking the shape of manageable piles).
|
|
For a delayed rider wondering whom to blame, it's tempting to begin with the people you can see, the 253,000 or so men and women — track cleaners, inspectors, flaggers and other orange-vested M.T.A. employees — charged with preventing these incidents and keeping the trains moving.
|
|
Twitter regularly publishes a transparency report in which it shares the number of requests received from different governments, as well as from "trusted flaggers/reporters" such as NGOs and other social or industry groups in Europe that help report violations of the EU's Code of Conduct against online hate speech.

The change to the flag is believed to have cost Georgia's last Democratic governor, Roy Barnes, his re-election bid in 2002, as he faced criticism from a vocal group of "flaggers" who argued that the symbol was not about racism, but the valor and sacrifice of the South's Civil War troops.
|
|
So obviously, you guys say the BuzzFeed story … And that goes to the second piece that I'm describing, which is we might have the policy in the right place, we might be happy about our enforcement guidelines around that policy, but then it's also up to our machines or our trusted flaggers or users to flag that content to then be enforced.
|
|
She said the policy change has come about as a result of YouTube working much more closely with a network of NGO experts working in this space and also participating in its community content policing trusted flaggers program — who have advised it that even sermons that do not ostensibly preach hate can be part of a wider narrative used by jihadi extremists to radicalize and recruit.

Following the November 2019 event there were three FITD events planned for 2020. Following the February event Covid-19 impacted the schedule. The Desert Flaggers began monthly music videos involving first local flaggers and then expanding to flaggers across the country. Their videos are published to their website.

Georgia Flagger with large flag on 20 foot pole at Alpharetta Old Soldiers' Parade, Alpharetta, Georgia, August 4, 2018. Flaggers are one of the several neo-Confederate groups active in the Southern United States. Flaggers usually operate at the state level. Their primary purpose is to make the Confederate battle flag as visible as possible.

On July 9, 2011, the fourth Minas Gerais flaggers meeting took place in Belo Horizonte, where several members of the country participated. It is the second largest meeting of Flaggers in the world, second only to the community of the city of San Francisco, California. Currently, this art can be seen in electronic culture scenes such as Raves in various parts of the country. The flags are not necessarily manufactured by flag-makers originating in Brazil by the original flaggers, but flags still continue to enter the scene through outside sources.
|
|
The idea was to maintain a strong flagger community while at a distance. Locally they have continued with small group socially-responsible tie dye classes outside. Another way the flagger community has maintained communication is though a weekly zoom meeting called the Virtual Flagging Studio which includes a short presentation, open flagging, and several "showcase" flaggers. Participation has grown to include flaggers world-wide.

Followers of Pascual Orozco, also known as the Colorados ("Red Flaggers"). They fought first for Madero, 1910-11, and revolted against his government in 1912 under the Plan Orozquista, before joining the Huerta army in February 1913.

A construction traffic control company operates in the same basic way as any other construction company. Companies submit a bid for a job, the lowest bid is accepted (except in the case of disadvantaged companies), and the labor is provided to the contractor or agency in charge. Typically speaking, flaggers work in groups of 5 to 10 under a TCS, or Traffic Control Supervisor. The TCS is responsible for placing the flaggers correctly, ensuring that they receive the proper breaks and supervision, and placing the advance warning signs (such as Road Work Ahead, One Lane Road Ahead, and Uneven Lanes).

The purpose of NELTA was to spread awareness of the dangers of asbestos and teach union members how to safely remove it. Then, just six years later, LIUNA signed a national agreement with the Asbestos Abatement Contractors Association insuring safer working conditions for all its members. Two years prior to that, the union won another significant victory when the Department of Labor formally recognized highway flaggers as members of LIUNA. This was important because it gave the highway flaggers better protection for their wages. In 1988, LIUNA established the Laborers’ Health and Safety Fund of North America, which was a co-venture between labor and management to help improved health and safety for workers.

However, he treated the Vallejos, whom he considered friends, as guests and not as prisoners.Severson, p. 43 While the "Bear Flaggers" under William B. Ide and John C. Frémont continued to wage war against the Mexican government, Sutter attempted to resume a state of normalcy in New Helvetia, although the lack of manpower as a result of the revolt left productivity lagging.Severson, p.

Orozco eventually became disappointed with the Madero's government and led a rebellion against him. He organized his own army, called "Orozquistas"—also called the Colorados ("Red Flaggers")—after Madero refused to agree to social reforms calling for better working hours, pay and conditions. The rural working class, which had supported Madero, now took up arms against him in support of Orozco. In March 1912, in Chihuahua, Gen.

In 1996 thirty fan dancers and flaggers from the Northeast where ready to take rotations on stage at the annual Pride Dance on the Pier. San Francisco, where this art form began, was still recovering from its loses. Those who had not died, placed their toys away out of significant grief. AmFAR held a benefit in September 1997 at the Trocadero returning the dance to its birthplace.

The A line shares crossings with Union Pacific tracks. This adds complexity to the crossing gate programs and technology. In June 2018, the FRA approved a plan to remove the flaggers monitoring the crossing gates along the A line. This approval also allows local jurisdictions to submit requests to the FRA to establish "quiet zones", removing the need for trains crossing through the gates to blow their horns.

Flagging In The Park (FITP), started in 1997, is a fundraising gathering of flaggers, flow artists, and their supporters, happening in the National AIDS Memorial Grove in Golden Gate Park. The event was started as a celebration of life and an honoring of those who had passed by founder Jeff Kennedy; then held by a few core members of the close-knit SF Tribe; in 2002 - 2003 the event was produced in Dolores Park by Bryan Hughes; in 2005 the event moved back to the National AIDS Memorial Grove being led by Xavier Caylor; from 2014 to the present the event is being held by a group of flaggers from the Bay Area and beyond. The basic event includes: a live DJ spinning music, a time for reflection, and hat being passed to raise money for charity. The event is open to all and many flow arts forms can be seen there.

Mexican troops in Chihuahua during Orozco's Rebellion On 3 March 1912 Orozco decreed a formal revolt against Madero's government. Orozco's forces, known as the Orozquistas and Colorados ("Red Flaggers"), defeated the Federal Army under General José González Salas. Seeing the potential danger that Orozco posed to his regime, Madero sent General Victoriano Huerta out of retirement to stop Orozco's rebellion. Huerta's troops defeated the orozquistas in Conejos, Rellano and Bachimba finally seizing Ciudad Juárez.

As a result, highway traffic control measures (including type of equipment and implementation), are not strictly consistent. Federal Guidelines do not address certification methods for traffic controllers, flaggers, or other personnel responsible for traffic control. This responsibility is managed on a state or local agency level, and therefore certification requirements are not consistent and are administered locally. Safety standards (irrespective of traffic control) are mandated by OSHA as well as state-level occupational safety departments.

The earliest documentation of a flagger group as an organization is the Virginia Flaggers, whose Web site says they were founded in 2011. However, the flagger movement first appeared, spontaneously and unorganized, in Georgia in 2001. The flag of Georgia from 1956 to 2001 incorporated the Confederate battle flag. Responding in part to pressure from civil rights groups who threatened an economic boycott of Georgia, Governor Roy Barnes "ramrodded" a flag change bill through the Legislature.

A flag dancer at a nightclub: circa 2001. Example (2011) The art of flagging dance, often called flag spinning, flag dancing, or rag spinning, but more commonly referred to as flagging, is the undulation, spinning and waving of flags in a rhythmic fashion to music. Practitioners of this form of performance art and dance are usually referred to as "flaggers" and "flag dancers", though until the 1990s this mostly referred to those waving flags to aid transportation professions (flag semaphore).

Harlow p.101 The Sonoma Barracks became the headquarters for the remaining twenty- four rebels, who within a few days created their Bear Flag (see the "Bear Flag" section below). After the flag was raised Californios called the insurgents Los Osos (The Bears) and "Bear Flaggers" because of their flag and in derision of their often scruffy appearance. The rebels embraced the expression, and their uprising, which they originally called the Popular Movement, became known as the Bear Flag Revolt.

In April 1846 Bradshaw returned to the Sonoma area and joined California's Bear Flag Rebellion, a group intending to overthrow Mexican rule and establish an independent California Republic. When the Bear Flaggers captured the fort at Sonoma on June 14, 1846, Captain Salvador Vallejo was one of their captors. Initially fearing vengeance related to the earlier picket fence incident, Vallejo's concerns were allayed when Bradshaw told him that he felt all accounts had been settled at the time.Bell, pp. 304.

Ide and other "Bear Flaggers" joined John C. Frémont and the U.S. armed forces in taking possession of California from Mexico. After the Mexican–American War, Ide returned to his home near Red Bluff, California, where he resumed his partnership with Josiah Belden at his Rancho Barranca Colorado. He bought out Belden in 1849, and was successful in mining. Ide went on to a distinguished career as a public servant in Colusi County (the precursor to portions of today's Colusa, Glenn and Shasta Counties).

The event consisted of growing number of flaggers from around the world, peaking in 2008 with 80+ participants. The event had various tracks, from beginners to advanced. In later years, the Weekend expanded to include multiple tracks, a circuit party and a showcase of performances, SpinOut, of their own, inspired by the San Francisco events of the same name. New York hosted the "World Symposium of Fanning and Flagging" in 2005 and included movement classes, creation workshops, and performances, mostly held at The Center.

Flaggers are the second line of attention (after the warning signs) for drivers. They are the first people in the work zone to deal with opposing traffic. While construction traffic control in the U.S. used to be a widely unionized profession, it is now dominated by private business and wages are not controlled by the union. While MUTCD and other standard practices have been instilled in traffic control workers for many years, workers still need to keep up to date on all the new regulations.

Although Maine fire police are not peace officers and do not have any police powers, they may be sworn in as special police in some towns, albeit rarely. Special police are police officers appointed for one-year terms and given very limited authority by their township to carry out specified duties. For example, under Maine law, only a police officer may actually shut down a roadway, while fire police cannot. However, in 2005, emergency workers in Maine received the authority to "redirect traffic" at emergency scenes as public safety traffic flaggers (PSTF's).

In 2019, MaineDOT began signing emergency routes along roads near I-295. The routes generally lead from one exit to the next exit and are meant to be used when sections of the highway must be closed due to an accident or other disruption. In such an event, electronic signs will be activated and flaggers deployed to direct drivers to use the appropriate emergency route to lead them around the closure and maintain traffic flow. Northbound routes are designated with a single letter, while southbound routes are designated with double letters.

On August 25 and 30 and on September 8, follow-up demonstrations were held at the site by supporters and critics of the toppling of the statue. The August 30 demonstration was convened as a "Silent Sam Twilight Service" by Alamance County Take Back Alamance County, a group designated a hate group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. (See Flaggers.) Chancellor Folt asked people not to come to these events for safety reasons. Some of these protests led to arrests for assault, resisting arrest, and inciting a public disturbance.

Maintenance of traffic (MOT), also known as temporary traffic control, is a process of establishing of a work zone, providing related transportation management and temporary traffic control on streets and highways right-of-way. This process does not apply to law enforcement officers. The establishment of a work zone and management of temporary traffic control is conducted by traffic controllers, also known as flaggers, traffic observers, or spotters. Standards of operations are established by the department of transportation of each state, and may vary from state to state.

They were to act primarily as occupation forces to free up Stockton's marines and sailors. The core of the California Battalion was the approximately 30 army personnel and 30 scouts, guards, ex-fur trappers, Indians, geographers, topographers and cartographers in Frémont's exploration force, which was joined by about 150 Bear Flaggers. The American marines, sailors, and militia easily took over the cities and ports of northern California; within days they controlled Monterey, San Francisco, Sonoma, Sutter's Fort, New Helvetia, and other small pueblos in northern Alta California. Nearly all were occupied without a shot being fired.

The Confederate Battle Flag was originally the flag of the Army of Northern Virginia, and was square. Modern Confederate flag controversies include the Confederate Battle Flag design that was added to the Georgia state flag as a protest against civil rights for blacks. Decades later, Georgia flaggers claimed that the Confederate Battle Flag design was a symbol of Southern heritage, although others saw it as a symbol of the Klan and slavery. The flag was redesigned by governor Barnes and redesigned again with the Stars and Bars replacing the Confederate Battle Flag on the Georgia state flag.

It led, according to Barnes himself, to his defeat for reelection two years later; the flag was a major issue in the election. A new flag was designed. In a non-binding 2004 referendum, 73% of the voters expressed a preference for the new flag, based on the first Confederate national flag, the Stars and Bars, over the 2001 design. (A return to the 1956 flag with the Confederate battle flag, desired by some, was not on the ballot.) Flaggers, as they were soon called, began displaying the Confederate battle flag, or the 1956 Georgia flag which contained it, in 2001.

The origins of flagging started with simple tee-shirts on the dance floor or fabric with a quarter tied in one corner. Today they are made by adding curtain weights sewn onto portions of two sides of fabric make it possible for flaggers to spin their props, or toys, through the air in ways similar to fan dancing. Given their simpler design (and portability), flagging is easier for beginners to start with and one can purchase pre-made flags from a few artisans such as Don Baker. The first such opportunity was advertised in Circuit Noize magazine in 1997– simple gold lame flags of 3 feet by 5 feet that came with a matching bag.

During the Bear Flag Revolt, on June 24, 1846, the Battle of Olómpali occurred when a violent skirmish broke out between a group of American Bear Flaggers from Sonoma, led by Henry Ford, and a Mexican army force of 50 from Monterey, under the command of Joaquin de la Torre. The opposing forces met at Rancho Olompali, granted to Coast Miwok chief Camilo Ynitia in 1843. On about June 16, William Todd was dispatched from Sonoma to Bodega Bay with an unnamed companion to obtain gunpowder from American settlers in that area. On June 18, Bears Thomas Cowie and George Fowler were sent to Rancho Sotoyome (near current-day Healdsburg, California) to pick up a cache of gunpowder from Moses Carson, brother of Frémont's scout Kit Carson.

A smart work zone Sensors detect traffic flow through this 15 mile Smart Work Zone and display "travel time" to drivers. A smart work zone or intelligent work zone refers to a site-specific configuration of traffic control technology deployed within a roadway work zone to increase the safety of construction workers, provide "real-time" travel information, and efficiently route motorists through a work zone. Smart work zones reduce the dependency on human "flaggers" and make the work zone safer for roadway workers. Common terms used to describe equipment configuration used within smart work zones: Smart work zones often use radar guns or other non-intrusive sensors to detect the presence and speed of vehicles approaching a work zone, in order to display an appropriate message on one or more variable message signs.

1, pp. 289–90, 554, fn. 259. Madero had put Orozco in charge of the large force of rurales in Chihuahua, but to a gifted revolutionary fighter who had helped bring about Díaz's fall, Madero's reward was insulting. After Madero refused to agree to social reforms calling for better working hours, pay and conditions, Orozco organized his own army, the "Orozquistas", also called the "Colorados" ("Red Flaggers") and issued his Plan Orozquista on 25 March 1912, enumerating why he was rising in revolt against Madero.Meyer, Michael C. Mexican Rebel: Pascual Orozco and the Mexican Revolution, 1910-1915 . Lincoln: University of Nebraska Press 1967, pp. 138-147 This caused considerable dismay among U.S. businessmen and other foreign investors in the northern region. It was a signal to many that Madero's government could not maintain the order that was the underpinning of modernization in the era of Porfirio Díaz.

Juan Nepomuceno Padilla (1824–) came from Mexico to California. Padilla was elected as the alcalde of Yerba Buena in 1845. Padilla was involved in a dispute with José de la Cruz Sánchez and his brother Francisco Sanchez, over the position. In 1845, Pio Pico awarded Padilla the four square league Rancho Roblar de la Miseria, in Sonoma County and later, the five square league Rancho Bolsa de Tomales. During the Bear Flag Revolt in June 1846, a band of Californios led by Captain Juan Padilla, killed two members of the Bear Flag Party, Thomas Cowie and George Fowler. Padilla and his band to retreated to Rancho Olompali, and a group of Americans set fire to Padilla’s Sonoma ranch. In 1848, after he returned from Los Angeles, Padilla, who long had been blamed for the murders in Santa Rosa, was attacked by a group of former Bear Flaggers in a Sonoma hotel.Leonard Pitt, Ramon A. Gutierrez, 1999,Decline of the Californios: A Social History of the Spanish-Speaking Californias, 1846–1890, University of California Press, In 1849, Padilla sold Rancho Bolsa de Tomales to Felix Berreyesa and Jesus Molina.
