Guidelines

OpenLens is built for creators investigating mysteries, leaks, history, and the strange edges of the internet. We protect open discussion — and we protect the people in it.

Cite your sources

Link archives, hashes, and timestamps. Source-backed badges go to creators who do.

Debate in good faith

Disagree with the work, not the person. The community downvote is louder than any block.

Original creator content

Stitches and reactions are welcome — credit the original. Mirrors must be marked.

Hard limits

No exploitation of minors, no doxxing, no direct threats, no trafficking, no scams.

Our promise

We will not over-censor investigations. We will not pretend hard questions don't exist. We will moderate behavior — not curiosity.
