Takedown

Takedowns and retractions are used when content cannot be safely or honestly corrected.

Escalation Rules

High-severity legal or safety incidents can trigger immediate hold and distribution suppression.
Decisions are auditable with timestamps, rationale, and linked moderation case metadata.
Appeals are tracked explicitly so reversals and follow-up actions are visible in the record.

Safety gate and legal-hold workflows are fail-closed when signal confidence is high risk.
Takedown state changes propagate to public correction/takedown feeds.
Emergency controls are operational safeguards, not editorial ranking tools.
