These are limits BRESHERE already keeps. Each one points to the recorded decision or gate behind it. This page adds no new rule; it says plainly what the existing ones mean.
Hold back reports about an identifiable person who may have been harmed
A report about a single child, victim, patient, refugee or private person is held, not researched into a public matter. Reports about police and security-force accountability, coercive care and mental-health crisis systems, missing persons and unidentified dead are always held. Reports about whole populations in a humanitarian situation, such as a famine or an outbreak, can go on to private research. Passing this gate approves and publishes nothing.
Decision: BDEC-000044 · POPULATION-HARM-SCOPE-001 · Accepted
Show children as anything other than the official record shows them
When a matter involves child victims, its public side is built only from official records and what was said in open court. BRESHERE will not show the children's addresses, schools, health or family details, any rumour about them or their family, any image of the children, their home or the scene, or medical, forensic or autopsy detail beyond the official record's own public words. Children are named as people, never as 'victim 1' or as exhibits. No ranking, art or daily Entry is built on their deaths. A family member's written request to remove or reduce the public side is honoured first and reviewed after.
Decision: BDEC-000039 · Accepted
Name a private individual who is not a party, counsel, judge or official
Nothing appears publicly unless it belongs to a public matter and its own approval holds. A named private individual who is not a party, counsel of record, judge or official acting in office is never shown on a child-victim matter's public side.
Decision: BDEC-000039, BDEC-000028 · PUBLIC-ENTITY-MATTER-GATE-001 · Accepted
Treat search demand, similarity or AI output as evidence
AI or model output is not evidence. Search demand is not evidence. Similarity is not identity. Association is not wrongdoing. Missing information is not proof of absence or guilt. Reporting never counts as a known fact, and a claim is only ever written as 'who claimed what, and when'; an agency's own release about its own success is still a claim.
Decision: BDEC-000050, BDEC-000039 · Accepted
Use a source whose licence does not allow it
A source whose licence is non-commercial, proprietary or commercially unclear is not used. A configuration setting cannot switch it back on; only a new recorded Founder decision naming that source can.
Decision: BDEC-000031 · SOURCE-LICENCE-COMMERCIAL-GATE-001 · Accepted
Approve a matter automatically when its legal-risk review holds it
A learned, per-jurisdiction legal-risk review checks identity certainty, exact quotation or official finding, wording that implies wrongdoing no official record supports, missing context, protected categories, record provenance and jurisdiction. A matter this review holds is never auto-approved and is withheld from public projection. Only the Founder can override a hold, with a written reason that names the exact holds and is kept permanently; if a hold changes or a new one appears, the matter is held again. It is not legal advice and cites no case BRESHERE has not fetched and verified.
Decision: BDEC-000068 · Accepted
Publish about a country or its officials without that country's own records
A country counts as ready only when BRESHERE has a usable registered national official source, an original-language record, and a legal-risk profile for it. A matter in a country that is not ready is never auto-approved and is withheld from public projection. This hold cannot be overridden.
Decision: BDEC-000069 · Accepted
