Social Networks Have Been A Popular Way For A Community To Share Content, Information, And News. Despite Section 230 Of The Communications Decency Act Of 1996 Protecting Social Platforms From Legal Liability Regarding User Uploaded Contents Of Their Platforms In The USA, There Has Been A Recent Call For Some Jurisdiction Over Platform Management Practices. This Duty Of Potential Jurisdiction Would Be Especially Challenging For Social Networks That Are Rich In Multimedia Contents, Such As 3DTube.org, Since 3D Capabilities Have A History Of Attracting Adult Materials And Other Controversial Content. This Paper Presents The Design Of 3DTube.org To Address Two Major Issues: (1) The Need For A Social Media Platform Of 3D Contents And (2) The Policies And Designs For Mediation Of Said Contents. Content Mediation Can Be Seen As A Compromise Between Two Conflicting Goals: Platform Micromanaging Of Content, Which Is Resource-intensive, And User Notification Of Flagged Content And Material, Prior To Viewing. This Paper Details 3DTube.org's Solution To Such A Compromise.
