Unwanted communication

  • Unwanted communication is a known problem
  • Spam in email
  • Spreading to popular emerging systems
  • Example: Mislabeled videos plaguing

YouTube

  • Usual defenses don’t work
  • Content filtering on video content?

Ostra: Leveraging trust

  • We present Ostra, a new approach
  • Prevents unwanted communication in an existing system
  • Examples: Email, Skype, IM,

YouTube

  • Ostra uses the relationships which exist between users
  • Often already present (i.e. social networks)
  • Ostra has desirable properties
  • Does not require global user identities
  • Does not rely on automatic content classification
  • Respects recipient’s notion of wanted/unwanted communication
