  2. Unwanted communication • Unwanted communication is a known problem • Spam in email • Spreading to popular emerging systems • Example: Mislabeled videos plaguing YouTube • Usual defenses don’t work • Content filtering on video content? 15.10.2007 SOSP 2007 WiP Alan Mislove 2

  19. Ostra: Leveraging trust • We present Ostra, a new approach • Prevents unwanted communication in an existing system • Examples: Email, Skype, IM, YouTube • Ostra uses the relationships which exist between users • Often already present (i.e. social networks) • Ostra has desirable properties • Does not require global user identities • Does not rely on automatic content classification • Respects recipient’s notion of wanted/unwanted communication 15.10.2007 SOSP 2007 WiP Alan Mislove 5
