The data you are dealing with should show which app the text is supposed to relate to. If the post does not relate to this application, ask yourself if it relates to a different application that is related to this one. There are various services that are embedded in each other, such as online advertising platforms, cloud services, and most recently, AI chatbot customer service.

 +On Reddit, we most often observe people speaking out against an ethical issue. Redditors express their [[glossary:ec|ethical concerns]] to talk with others about their worries.\\ 
 +Rarely, Redditors create posts that directly dismisses another group's worries, although there are [[https://www.reddit.com/r/GenZ/comments/1f5rpil/censorship_is_needed_and_there_shouldnt_be_full/|examples]]. 
 +If a text speaks about a specific topic that we know is seen as an ethical issue (see our EIS types and subtypes), but the author is not concerned about it, it should still be given a TRUE label for containing an EIS. An example would be [[https://www.reddit.com/r/PPC/comments/n213tv/best_fb_ad_tracking_software/|this post]] that speaks favorable about ad tracking technology, which is a software aspect that is at odds with the ethics of other people. See [[eis:types:privacy|Privacy]].

 It might help to think about [[glossary:stance|stance]] already at this stage. Would this person say that it is an issue to them and are they worried? They would have an 'against' stance on the issue. Is it a neutral description of a specific issue? It would be a 'neutral' stance. Does the person express that they are in favor of something happening that others take issue with? Then it might be an 'in_favor' stance towards an issue. The last case can only be detected if they acknowledge in their text that this is an issue to some, of if we previous knowledge about it within our taxonomy (Such as the sub-types given in [[eis:types:privacy|Privacy]]).\\ It might help to think about [[glossary:stance|stance]] already at this stage.
