Del Harvey: The strangeness of scale at Twitter

  • When hundreds of thousands of Tweets are fired every second, a one-in-a-million chance - including unlikely sounding sounding scenarios that could harm users - happens about 500 times a day. For Del Harvey, who heads Twitter's Trust and Safety Team, these odds aren't good. The security maven spends her days thinking about how to prevent worst-case scenarios while giving voice to people around the globe. With deadpan humor, she offers a window into how she keeps 240 million users safe.

    • @makexxwar
      @makexxwar 10 років тому +8

      She was just giving examples of different types of threats to illustrate the difficulty of creating parameters to filter out threats that don't seem bad on the surface, while allowing legitimate messages through that might seem bad on the surface, and how that difficulty is compounded by the sheer scale that she is working with. This talk was not meant to be a description of all the work she has ever done, seeing as that would make for an overly long and tedious video to sit through

    • @dBradbury
      @dBradbury 10 років тому +12

      Can you really not tell that she is deliberately dumbing things down into simple terms to try and convey the concept that 'extremely rare occurrences' happen quite frequently, and that simply writing filters for these instances aren't good enough? How silly of you.

    • @magottyk
      @magottyk 10 років тому +3

      David Bradbury
      Yeah the ted audience needs to be talked at using the lowest common denominator.
      Her point that a one in million occurrence happens on average 500 times a day when there are 500 million actions a day.
      How complex must the math have been.

    • @dBradbury
      @dBradbury 10 років тому +2

      magottyk
      Many people don't really think about that in those terms - And it isn't because they're not doing the math... Most people don't typically have to work at that sort of scale and have preconceived notions about things with extremely low odds. It isn't trying to talk down to the audience - It is simply keep everyone on the same page in case you haven't thought of it from that viewpoint before.

    • @magottyk
      @magottyk 10 років тому +1

      David Bradbury
      I was looking for the "but there's more" part that usually accompanies these type of TED talks, but there was none.
      The other thing that struck me was that the talk didn't appear concerned with how people unthinkingly put stuff on the internet that could help someone track them, but that the concern was with hidden data that could implicate the company in a lawsuit.
      It seemed more about protecting the company rather than protecting the actual users from themselves.

    Twitter do a good job all in all, although an area they fail to deal with is the amount of individuals showing hundreds of pornographic images, so when you are reading down the tweets you immediate come to full body revealed in some very open positions, I am not a prude so can deal with this as and when it happens, my concerns are the millions of younger users such as teenagers, I have worked with many victims who have been talked into posing naked for another believing these will never been shown to the world, then there are the ones who did not know they were being filmed and or having photos taken, lastly and most concerning, if a person who has never slept with another sees some of these images, they get to thinking about similarities with their own body, before you know it many problems develop, especially the really young ones, I trust someone will read this who cares, Much Love to you

Do you expect someone that work for twitter should start talking about how facebook deal with matters of security when they don't even work there? If you want that then go pick up the most generic textbook about internet security you can find where there is no real examples.

    Less than a minute into it, and I can't help but notice that the presenter neglected to compare tweets to accounts. What it belies is the truth of scale in growing a total world population from roughly one billion around the turn of the nineteenth century to today seven billion plus. It's not sustainable on the planet or Twitter, judging by their stock price since inception.

Doesn't he actually work for the gubbernment? I think a guy named Chan (Fed boi inc), when Allison was at twitter, sent an email to some kid named Yoel granting a handful of security clearances to hand out to whomever he/his boss saw fit (wasn't Del/Allison his boss?) 30 days before the presidential selection in 2020, didn't he?

    5:22 Nope, that's still spam.
    All "importance" is relative.
    Each individual spam is important to *someone*, but never to everyone. I don't really need to know about police abuse in some place on the other side of the world, if i paid attention to every incident i'd be flooded with tweets constantly.
    Also, every delusional paranoid schizophrenic thinks their insights are the most important thing in the world. You shouldn't trust people to use broadcast services responsibly.
