BeCandid
From Encyclopedia Dramatica
This is an old revision of this page, as edited by imported>Cobaltcat at 16:24, 28 September 2016. It may differ significantly from the current revision.
Fact Cat says: This article is full of facts, we know this because of our learning. It may however be lacking in the drama department.
Have you ever pondered to yourself "Hang on a second, I don't think either Facebook or Twitter is intrusive enough"? And do you want a platform where your comments are being harvested by a giant AI so it knows what phrases to protect people from that can later be sold to other social media sites? Then BeCandid is the app for you. Heavily promoted by your favourite YouTubers such as ShoeOnHead(archive), Bearing(archive), CreationistCat(archive), TheAmazingAtheist(archive) and many many more, all of whom were approached directly by the site and offered sponsorship deals because the site's owners are feminazis and these people's audience is exactly who they want their AI to learn how to ban. Baited with a "free speech platform" angle dangling from its hook to lure in gullible trolls, MRAs, anti-sjws, and anyone else who (unlike the site's owner) actually thinks the first amendment shouldn't be abolished, BeCandid is the perfect place for the sort of people who once opposed sited like Peeple, HeartMob and Social Autopsy and helped them failed (at least those of them who didn't support SoAu because they were okay with being data mined by an Orwellian nigger if it makes Zoe Quinn mad), only to now unknowingly help turn the entire internet into HeartMob.

A few years ago, Silicon Valley engineer Bindu Reddy was raising money for a new startup. An investor offered to contribute — not because of what she was trying to do, but because she was a woman.
That rubbed Reddy the wrong way, and she wrote about it — then the backlash began.
Now Reddy's goal, with the new social network Candid, is to facilitate online conversations but without the trolls.
Diaree is not only the best diary app, but a new way to share your life story. You can create a post about what’s on your mind and attach a picture. If you choose to share the post anonymously, it will show up in the public list for anyone to see, like, comment on and even share.
By creating a social network which is completely anonymous, Diaree gives you a chance to share things and feelings which you wouldn’t on other networks, offering people a way to interact with someone else, express themselves, talk about difficult subjects or just have fun
Candid (formerly known as Dairee) has been one of my favorite apps for BlackBerry 10 since beginning. Candid allows you to record your life, including your significant memories.
At this moment in time it was published by a Gyubok Baik.

Candid is a completely anonymous service in that no one can identify you within the app. All of your interactions, including comments, likes, and favourites, as well as your personal diary entries, remain completely anonymous and cannot be linked back to you.
This sounds very familiar to what BeCandid does. Almost the exact same name. What a coincidink. Who wouldn't trust a company that ripped off the concept of another one?
MyLikes.com - A Scam
This product is completely like their previous data mining product MyLikes.com, so much that the exact same people are working on it. A pyramid-scheme where they never actually paid the money that they owed, but instead just banned people when they were nearing their payday.
“
so I signed up and went for it. I've got a pretty strong social network that my video can be posted onto, so I did it (which is what the site owners suggest you do) and in 2 days I brought in 5,990. Whilst this isn't on par with some of the hardcore YouTubers, I was pretty impressed with this.
Initially, MyLikes agreed with my views. However, when I hit 3,000, they said they were only going to pay for 260 of them.Then, when my view count hit 5,990, it said that the video was disapproved. Now the money that I should have received £80.50
I would strongly suggest that anyone that wants to make money online, they should stay away from MyLikes. I'm not the only one that's had this problem. Google the title of this Hub and you'll find 378,000 hits for this topic. It appears that when you start making decent money, the scrub out your account so they keep all the profit.
This is yet another social media app by the same curries. Trying the same thing over and over, it seems.
What Friendlife.com is good for
How Does It Work?
Very simple. Once you connect to the Celebrity program, you are now able to stream videos. And by doing so, you will earn money, because Friendlife will put ads on your livestream.
So how much do you make?
FUCK ALL
Your hourly wage would be a whopping 0.3 dollars per hour. Where do I sign up?
Algorithm To Get Rid Of Trolls
“
The way other artificial intelligence works, is it basically parses your sentence. We use a deep learning NLP algorithm, which basically looks at what you're saying and decides ... whether it's positive or negative. So it kind of classifies things as having a negative sentiment or a positive sentiment.
It then gives it a score of how kind of strong your statement is — let's say you said something about someone or you threatened someone, it classifies that as saying, "Hey this is a very strong statement," because these kinds of categories are not good in terms of social discourse. And when we do that, we basically say if this thing has a score which is more than a particular level, a cut-off, then we basically take out the whole post. So whether it's self harm or like bullying or harassment, we look for certain phrases and the context of those phrases
Candid’s secret sauce is in its artificial intelligence moderation, which aims to weed out bad actors by analyzing the content of posts and keep hate speech and threats off the network. It also has other interesting features: For example, its algorithm tries to weed out false information by marking certain items as “rumor” or “true.” Conversations on the network — even about politics and other controversial topics — are, by and large polite. That’s a good sign and shows that the algorithm seems to be working.
Yes, just like shitty image boards they will make their money by data mining their users. So much for anonymity.
HOW IT WENT WITH IMAGEBOARDS
“
MyLikes, which operates primarily on Twitter, connects brands and tweeters for paid product endorsements. It is similar to Ad.ly and to some extent Klout.
The company takes pride in its founders, employees and funders being primarily composed of former Googlers.
Like many social media businesses, MyLikes has landed on the combination of brand advertising with cost-per-click payments. Reddy calls Twitter a television replacement, and her clients include familiar TV advertisers like Coca-Cola, Universal Pictures, Axe Hair and Microsoft.
The urge to fear death is a little strange, especially in the absence of a focus on social justice.
Talib Kweli has been in the press a lot lately talking about #blacklivesmatter and I was excited to see him speak at a conference that, despite the best efforts of its organizers, remains mostly white.
Given the ongoing social death experienced by people of color and non-mainstream gender identity, I had hoped that more words would be spoken about social justice. Alas, much like Talib Kweli himself, the hard work speaking and thinking about social justice never really showed up.
Sometimes I too want to be vulnerable and sensitive to all the hatred and prejudice and fear, to let myself soak it up and cry it out, to avoid engaging with the world lest I make a misstep and pursue moral purity.
It does kill me spiritually and emotionally to (mostly) witness and (occasionally) experience injustice in all its various diabolical forms every day.
Every conversation with someone who says something subconsciously rude and aggressive that betrays their self-doubt and fear (microaggressions) feels like getting stabbed and makes me want to flee.
Hi Product Hunt! I'm Spencer from Candid and I'm thrilled to share what we've been working on. Can't wait to see what you all have to say, and I'm happy to answer any questions.

What can YOU do?!
How about, for once in your life, you don't take the obvious fucking bait?
Don't join the site.
Don't go to the site.
Don't try to troll people there to try to prove some sort of point because you won't hurt anyone and will only be data mined.
Don't give the site any attention.
Resist the urge to take the bait and make an account just to let everyone on there know you know it's bait and you're too smart to take it (even though you just did).
Just do nothing. Something you lazy failures should already be experts at.
