We've been made aware of an account that instructs zoophiles to mass-appeal their bans and harass Bluesky moderators. To protect our users and cull a potential network effect, we've hidden the profile. Now, when you visit that profile while being subscribed to Laelaps, you'll see this screen:
A Content Warning disclaimer.

We've been made aware of a pro-zoophile labeller that was recently released. To protect our users and cull a potential network effect, we've taken an extra step of hiding the profile. Now, when you visit that labeller's profile, you'll see this screen:

With the advent of potential new users, we want to remind you that there are dedicated blocklists for each category we label, accessible via the "Lists" tab on the Laelaps profile:
A screenshot of the Laelaps moderation lists.

- Open Zoophile: Publicly identifying as a zoophile. This includes profiles with known coded dogwhistles like the zeta symbol (ζ), the triangles and four-pointed star (◤✦◢), or the Phoenician aleph (𐤀), or having a handle that's linked to a zoophile-centric domain name.
- Interacts With Zoophiles: Actively interacting with open zoophiles. This includes, but is not limited to: liking or reposting posts related to, replying to, or following a large amount of open zoophiles.
- Zoophile Supporter: Supporting or defending zoophiles or their associates, or creating spaces that welcome zoophiles.
- Outed Zoophile: Being publicly identified as a zoophile by a reputable whistleblower, or being found participating in conversations which advocate for or admit to zoophilic acts.

We've pushed new icons for the labeler blocklists with smaller icons in the upper-right corner to differentiate them. These might not be the easiest to see at such a small scale even in this screenshot, so we've included descriptions in the alt text.

The icon for "Open Zoophile" is a Greek zeta with a cancel symbol overlaid on top of it.

The icons in the corner for the other lists, Interacts With Zoophiles, Zoophile Supporter, and Outed Zoophile:
- Interacts With Zoophiles: A user symbol with a plus on the right-hand side.
- Zoophile Supporter: A checkmark symbol.
- Outed Zoophile: An alert symbol with an exclamation mark in the middle.

On the final screen, you'll have a chance to double-check if you're sending your report to the right labeler, or select multiple labelers if you need to. Write a detailed explanation with links to additional evidence if applicable, and we'll process your report. And that's all there is to it.
The final screen for the reporting flow. Laelaps is checked. There is a box which says, "Optionally provide additional information below:" with a text field. At the bottom is a button which says, "Send report."
