The Right to Honour on Social Networks: Detection and Classifications of Users

It is clear that social networks have come to stay. In recent years they have become the media par excellence. The users who participate in them help to spread information quickly and easily so that everyone can benefit. Users are becoming more inclined to voice their opinions, networks are willing to listen and technology has an enormous outreach. A priori, something that seems a great advantage can become a big problem when the news spread violates an individual's right to honour. This paper proposes a tool that detects and collects information from users who publish or disseminate offensive information to an individual. It establishes parameters that determine the level of damage certain individuals can make on social media and makes a ranking that is based on their characteristics and publications. This proposal is an example of the infinite possibilities that automatic data collection and processing provide us with. Without these technologies it would have been impossible to protect the rights of individuals on social networks, due to the large number of users.
