| POSITIVE LEAN — Platform and post support core UDHR rights (Articles 19, 26, 27, 20) through open knowledge-sharing, free expression, and voluntary participation. Structural design prioritizes privacy and non-discrimination. Accessibility and social protection remain underdeveloped. Mixed signals reflect tension between platform's enabling role in rights and limitations in proactive duty to ensure universal access. Editorial
