# My Social Record — Complete Reference

> AI-powered social media reputation scanner. Scan your Twitter/X and Facebook posts for reputation risks before they damage your career, visa applications, or public image.

## Overview

My Social Record is a web-based platform that helps individuals, professionals, and organisations understand their digital reputation risk. Using advanced AI models, it scans a user's entire social media history across X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook, analysing every post, reply, retweet, and share across 11 distinct risk categories.

The platform was built in response to high-profile cases where old social media posts resurfaced and caused severe professional and personal consequences — from job losses and political disqualifications to immigration denials.

## Problem Statement

Social media posts from years or even decades ago can resurface at any time and be used against individuals in:
- **Hiring decisions**: Employers increasingly screen candidates' social media histories
- **Political appointments**: Public officials face scrutiny of their entire online footprint
- **Immigration and visa applications**: Border agencies review social media as part of vetting
- **Brand partnerships**: Influencers and public figures risk deals over old posts
- **Legal proceedings**: Historical posts can be used as evidence

## Real-World Cases

Several high-profile cases demonstrate the real consequences:

- **Ezra Olubi** (2025): Co-founder and CTO of Paystack (Stripe-owned) was fired after old tweets with offensive content resurfaced
- **Simi** (2026): Nigerian singer faced major backlash when decade-old tweets resurfaced
- **Kevin Hart** (2018): Stepped down as Oscars host after old homophobic tweets resurfaced
- **James Gunn** (2018): Temporarily fired from Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 over old offensive tweets
- **Gina Carano** (2021): Dropped from The Mandalorian after controversial social media posts
- **Josh Allen** (2018): NFL quarterback's old offensive tweets surfaced on draft night
- **Alexi McCammond** (2021): Resigned as Teen Vogue editor before starting over old anti-Asian tweets
- **Justine Sacco** (2013): Lost her PR job after a single tweet went viral during a flight

## How It Works

### Quick Scan (OAuth)
1. User connects their X or Facebook account via secure OAuth
2. Platform fetches recent public posts via API
3. AI analyses each post in real-time
4. Results delivered with reputation score and flagged posts

### Deep Scan (Data Import)
1. User downloads their data archive from the social platform
2. Uploads the archive to My Social Record
3. AI processes the complete post history (can be thousands of posts)
4. Comprehensive analysis across all 11 risk categories
5. Detailed report with severity levels and actionable insights

## Reputation Scoring

Posts are scored on a 0-100 risk scale:
- **Clean** (0-29): No significant risk detected
- **Low Risk** (30-49): Minor concerns that may warrant review
- **Medium Risk** (50-69): Moderate risk that could cause issues in certain contexts
- **High Risk** (70-100): Significant risk that could cause serious professional or personal consequences

An overall Reputation Score is calculated using category-weighted penalties, giving higher weight to more severe categories like legal risk and hate speech.
