Safety Center

Sudo is built around trust, privacy and respect. Here's how we keep the community and its content safe — and how you can stay safe too.

1. Safety tools you control

  • Verify your profile

    Verified email (and phone, coming soon) helps signal real accounts and reduces impersonation.

  • Follow-based messaging

    Only people you follow each other with can message you. No cold DMs.

  • Privacy controls

    Hide your profile, control visibility of your posts, and delete your account at any time.

  • Report & block

    Report content or accounts in two taps. Our moderation team reviews every report.

2. Content standards

The following are not allowed anywhere on Sudo — in posts, reels, stories, live streams, comments, or messages:

  • Harassment or bullying
  • Hate speech
  • Fraud, scams, and phishing
  • Impersonation
  • Sexually explicit content
  • Content harmful to minors
  • Deepfakes and manipulated media
  • Copyright infringement
  • Dangerous challenges or self-harm
  • Spam and platform manipulation

3. Tips for staying safe

  1. Never share financial information, one-time codes, or passwords with anyone.
  2. Be careful with personal details (home address, workplace, school) in public posts.
  3. Only grant camera or microphone permission when you're actively recording or in a call.
  4. Use privacy settings to control who sees your posts, stories, and online status.
  5. Report content or accounts that break our rules — we review every report.

4. See something wrong?

Open any profile, post, or message and tap Report or Block. Our team reviews every report.
