QUESTIONS

Big companies are quick to ignore anyone who isn’t powerful or wealthy. Most people don’t have that kind of clout and never get recourse – but en masse, they become a force to be reckoned with. NameandShame is a platform for you to tell and share stories of injustices. Simple. We're here to stop instances of abuse, not perpetuate them, and we created a platform that operates by that principle. We will do everything in our technical capacity to continue to refine our model to ensure it remains a place where you can air grievances and demand justice.

Oh Absolutely. Your information is fully encrypted and protected in a secure datacenter, right besides Wikileaks. We are not only secured by military-grade hardware, but also legally with powerful privacy laws and experienced legal advisers protecting your identity from prying eyes.

No. Unfortunately not. Please note that once you publish a report on NAS, it becomes part of the public conversation. Our policy is that we will not remove a user’s content unless presented with a court order with precise identification of the infringing content.

Simply navigate to https://www.nameandshame.com/edit_account and you'll see the necessary options.

Since we do not allow anyone to edit/delete content posted in the past, we provide an option where you can post addendum to the existing Incident Report in order to add, or to clarify certain facts and updates on your report. On the IR (Incident Report), look out for the button which says 'Addendum', and you should be fine.

With round-the-clock moderation by our volunteers, it is highly unlikely that any personal information (such as SSN, Creditcard number, Banking Details etc) gets published on NAS. If you see any such private information which violates our 'Terms of Services', kindly get in touch with us immediately

No. NameandShame is not meant to be an alternative for legal channels. It is a platform to report and share an incident on the internet.

Truth is your best ally, and a strong defense to defamation. If what you have posted is true, you have nothing to fear. If a business tries to intimidate you to cripple your freedom of speech, please get in touch with us immediately. We will try to patch you through to our friends who would be in a better position to assist you in your fight. We will always be on your side.

NAS will never ever, under any circumstances, take down a URL. There will never be a 'page not found' error on this website. Incident Reports can be taken down in only 2 instances - court order & DMCA. In both the cases, we will only hide the infringing content and place a transparency report for reference. So, you will never find any webpage or report missing from our database.

To manage NAS, we would need all the help and cooperation we can get. If you are absolutely certain that you are willing to invest your energy and time to moderate NAS, you're more than welcome to submit an inquiry at https://www.nameandshame.com/get-in-touch. Depending on your profile and mod position opening, we'll get in touch with you.

Yes, we need all the help we can get. From volunteer moderators, to webmasters and bloggers, or social media experts and celebs, journalists, lawyers, free-speech activists, influential citizens, and basically anybody with a computer and an internet connection can be a part of this movement. It is a COMMUNITY-CREATED and MANAGED platform. Sooner than later, it'll become self-sufficient. You, as a member, will have a stake in its future and ownership. Every bit of help, support and critique will help improve this system. Please get-in-touch with us with your thoughts and inquiries.
