the porous city

Social networks for Girl Scouts
Friend sent a link to her kid’s Girl Scout Cookie sale page. The only things the kid could customize, as far as I could tell, were the profile image and a text blurb. Having worked in Trust & Safety, obviously my first thought was “how do they QC those”.

Kids being organized into troops (or whatever they’re called for Girl Scouts) could really simplify that - the troop leader is responsible for that. And the troop leaders are supervised by regional leaders, and so on.

Wonder if anything like that would work for social networks?
