Messaging Content Deletion Authorization with Duplicate Request Handling
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Existing messengers face issues with unauthorized content deletion causing confusion and redundant approval requests due to unspecified deletion authorities, leading to inefficiencies and user inconvenience.
Innovation Solution
A method and device that detect an authorized client to approve or reject deletion requests, manage deletion request events, and process duplicate requests efficiently, ensuring content deletion is authorized and consistent with user friendliness.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Speed
If content deletion is allowed without authorization checks, then deletion operation speed is improved, but content security and user rights protection deteriorate
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary authorization verification by checking whether the requesting user has deletion rights before allowing the content deletion operation. This preliminary check ensures that only authorized users can delete content, preventing unauthorized deletions while maintaining efficient operation for legitimate requests.
2Reliability
If authorization verification is performed for every deletion request, then content security is improved, but system complexity and processing time increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system automatically verifies deletion authorization by checking the user's permissions and the content's deletion rights settings without requiring manual intervention. The authorization check is performed self-service through database queries and permission validations, reducing system complexity while maintaining security.
3Reliability
If multiple approval requests are sent for duplicate deletion requests, then authorization thoroughness is improved, but redundancy and inefficiency increase
Solution Approach 1:
The system implements a feedback mechanism that tracks deletion request status and detects duplicate requests. When a duplicate deletion request is detected, the system provides feedback by identifying it as redundant and preventing unnecessary processing, thereby maintaining authorization thoroughness while improving processing efficiency.
4Speed
If deletion requests are processed without duplicate detection, then processing speed is improved, but redundant operations and resource waste occur
Solution Approach 1:
The system performs preliminary duplicate detection by checking whether a deletion request for the same content already exists in the processing queue or has been recently processed. This preliminary check prevents redundant processing of duplicate requests, saving computational resources and energy while maintaining processing speed for unique requests.

AI summary
A processing method including detecting an authorized client to determine whether to approve a deletion request of content, obtained from a first message from a request client, transmitting a second message requesting approval for the deletion request of the content to the detected authorized client, and determining whether to delete the content, based on a third message received from the authorized client.
