Rasid is an early-warning service on incitement against migrants, refugees and UN agencies in Libya. It reads public Libyan sources several times a day, classifies what it finds against a published codebook, and raises an alert when a dated ultimatum, a threat, a call for violence or an exposure of someone’s location appears — built for protection actors and their partners.
The purpose is to document what is said about people, not to track who says it.
59 sources read publicly
Public content is collected by an instrumented browser reading as dedicated accounts, read-only: it never joins a group, follows a page or requests membership, and it carries no personal or organisational identity.
The list is not a claim of completeness and nothing here presents it as one. Anything said outside the sources in scope is invisible to this platform: the figures above are what these sources carried, not what Libya said.
Everything a source in scope publishes is collected, not only what matches a word. There is no keyword filter at collection, and that is deliberate: a denominator is honest only if the material that turned out to be irrelevant is inside it. A large share of what is collected has nothing to do with the subject — a road closure, a condolence, a teachers’ strike — and that share is shown above rather than removed. On-topic means the item is about migrants, refugees, the United Nations or the campaign itself, decided by classification against the published codebook and not by the presence of a word.
Who is behind a figure is answered at three levels and never below: the group or page the item was published in, which is named; the number of distinct accounts behind it, which is countable because author identities are hashed at capture; and how many of those accounts appear to have been created recently. A rise in calls for violence against the United Nations is therefore reported as which pages carried it, across how many distinct accounts, how far it concentrated in a few of them, and whether the same text travelled between sources.
It is never reported as a named person. Author identities are replaced by a keyed hash at the moment of capture, and no individual is named in any brief, alert or export. That is a limit on the product rather than an omission from it: naming a person who is being targeted republishes exactly the exposure the service exists to flag.
